BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

When used in this Report, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,”“plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forwardlooking statements.Such statements, include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this Report relating to our business strategy, our future operatingresults and liquidity and capital resources outlook. Forwardlooking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptionsregarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward–looking statements relate to the future, they are subject toinherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from thosecontemplated by the forwardlooking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees of assurance of futureperformance. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forwardlooking statements. Important factors that could cause actualresults to differ materially from those in the forwardlooking statements include, without limitation, our ability to raise capital to fund continuingoperations; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; the impact of any infringement actions or other litigation brought against us;competition from other providers and products; our ability to develop and commercialize products and services; changes in governmentregulation; our ability to complete capital raising transactions; and other factors (including the risks contained in the section of this AnnualReport entitled “Risk Factors”) relating to our industry, our operations and results of operations. Actual results may differ significantly fromthose anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all ofthem. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including thesecurities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forwardlooking statements to conform these statements to actualresults.Item 1. BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

When used in this Report, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,”“plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forwardlooking statements.Such statements, include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this Report relating to our business strategy, our future operatingresults and liquidity and capital resources outlook. Forwardlooking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptionsregarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward–looking statements relate to the future, they are subject toinherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from thosecontemplated by the forwardlooking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees of assurance of futureperformance. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forwardlooking statements. Important factors that could cause actualresults to differ materially from those in the forwardlooking statements include, without limitation, our ability to raise capital to fund continuingoperations; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; the impact of any infringement actions or other litigation brought against us;competition from other providers and products; our ability to develop and commercialize products and services; changes in governmentregulation; our ability to complete capital raising transactions; and other factors (including the risks contained in the section of this AnnualReport entitled “Risk Factors”) relating to our industry, our operations and results of operations. Actual results may differ significantly fromthose anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all ofthem. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including thesecurities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forwardlooking statements to conform these statements to actualresults.Item 1. BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

When used in this Report, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,”“plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forwardlooking statements.Such statements, include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this Report relating to our business strategy, our future operatingresults and liquidity and capital resources outlook. Forwardlooking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptionsregarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward–looking statements relate to the future, they are subject toinherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from thosecontemplated by the forwardlooking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees of assurance of futureperformance. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forwardlooking statements. Important factors that could cause actualresults to differ materially from those in the forwardlooking statements include, without limitation, our ability to raise capital to fund continuingoperations; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; the impact of any infringement actions or other litigation brought against us;competition from other providers and products; our ability to develop and commercialize products and services; changes in governmentregulation; our ability to complete capital raising transactions; and other factors (including the risks contained in the section of this AnnualReport entitled “Risk Factors”) relating to our industry, our operations and results of operations. Actual results may differ significantly fromthose anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all ofthem. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including thesecurities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forwardlooking statements to conform these statements to actualresults.Item 1. BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

When used in this Report, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,”“plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forwardlooking statements.Such statements, include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this Report relating to our business strategy, our future operatingresults and liquidity and capital resources outlook. Forwardlooking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptionsregarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward–looking statements relate to the future, they are subject toinherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from thosecontemplated by the forwardlooking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees of assurance of futureperformance. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forwardlooking statements. Important factors that could cause actualresults to differ materially from those in the forwardlooking statements include, without limitation, our ability to raise capital to fund continuingoperations; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; the impact of any infringement actions or other litigation brought against us;competition from other providers and products; our ability to develop and commercialize products and services; changes in governmentregulation; our ability to complete capital raising transactions; and other factors (including the risks contained in the section of this AnnualReport entitled “Risk Factors”) relating to our industry, our operations and results of operations. Actual results may differ significantly fromthose anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all ofthem. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including thesecurities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forwardlooking statements to conform these statements to actualresults.Item 1. BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

When used in this Report, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,”“plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forwardlooking statements.Such statements, include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this Report relating to our business strategy, our future operatingresults and liquidity and capital resources outlook. Forwardlooking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptionsregarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward–looking statements relate to the future, they are subject toinherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from thosecontemplated by the forwardlooking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees of assurance of futureperformance. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forwardlooking statements. Important factors that could cause actualresults to differ materially from those in the forwardlooking statements include, without limitation, our ability to raise capital to fund continuingoperations; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; the impact of any infringement actions or other litigation brought against us;competition from other providers and products; our ability to develop and commercialize products and services; changes in governmentregulation; our ability to complete capital raising transactions; and other factors (including the risks contained in the section of this AnnualReport entitled “Risk Factors”) relating to our industry, our operations and results of operations. Actual results may differ significantly fromthose anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all ofthem. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including thesecurities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forwardlooking statements to conform these statements to actualresults.Item 1. BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

When used in this Report, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,”“plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forwardlooking statements.Such statements, include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this Report relating to our business strategy, our future operatingresults and liquidity and capital resources outlook. Forwardlooking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptionsregarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward–looking statements relate to the future, they are subject toinherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from thosecontemplated by the forwardlooking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees of assurance of futureperformance. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forwardlooking statements. Important factors that could cause actualresults to differ materially from those in the forwardlooking statements include, without limitation, our ability to raise capital to fund continuingoperations; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; the impact of any infringement actions or other litigation brought against us;competition from other providers and products; our ability to develop and commercialize products and services; changes in governmentregulation; our ability to complete capital raising transactions; and other factors (including the risks contained in the section of this AnnualReport entitled “Risk Factors”) relating to our industry, our operations and results of operations. Actual results may differ significantly fromthose anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all ofthem. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including thesecurities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forwardlooking statements to conform these statements to actualresults.Item 1. BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

When used in this Report, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,”“plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forwardlooking statements.Such statements, include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this Report relating to our business strategy, our future operatingresults and liquidity and capital resources outlook. Forwardlooking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptionsregarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward–looking statements relate to the future, they are subject toinherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from thosecontemplated by the forwardlooking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees of assurance of futureperformance. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forwardlooking statements. Important factors that could cause actualresults to differ materially from those in the forwardlooking statements include, without limitation, our ability to raise capital to fund continuingoperations; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; the impact of any infringement actions or other litigation brought against us;competition from other providers and products; our ability to develop and commercialize products and services; changes in governmentregulation; our ability to complete capital raising transactions; and other factors (including the risks contained in the section of this AnnualReport entitled “Risk Factors”) relating to our industry, our operations and results of operations. Actual results may differ significantly fromthose anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all ofthem. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including thesecurities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forwardlooking statements to conform these statements to actualresults.Item 1. BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

When used in this Report, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,”“plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forwardlooking statements.Such statements, include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this Report relating to our business strategy, our future operatingresults and liquidity and capital resources outlook. Forwardlooking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptionsregarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward–looking statements relate to the future, they are subject toinherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from thosecontemplated by the forwardlooking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees of assurance of futureperformance. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forwardlooking statements. Important factors that could cause actualresults to differ materially from those in the forwardlooking statements include, without limitation, our ability to raise capital to fund continuingoperations; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; the impact of any infringement actions or other litigation brought against us;competition from other providers and products; our ability to develop and commercialize products and services; changes in governmentregulation; our ability to complete capital raising transactions; and other factors (including the risks contained in the section of this AnnualReport entitled “Risk Factors”) relating to our industry, our operations and results of operations. Actual results may differ significantly fromthose anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all ofthem. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including thesecurities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forwardlooking statements to conform these statements to actualresults.Item 1. BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

When used in this Report, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,”“plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forwardlooking statements.Such statements, include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this Report relating to our business strategy, our future operatingresults and liquidity and capital resources outlook. Forwardlooking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptionsregarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward–looking statements relate to the future, they are subject toinherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from thosecontemplated by the forwardlooking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees of assurance of futureperformance. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forwardlooking statements. Important factors that could cause actualresults to differ materially from those in the forwardlooking statements include, without limitation, our ability to raise capital to fund continuingoperations; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; the impact of any infringement actions or other litigation brought against us;competition from other providers and products; our ability to develop and commercialize products and services; changes in governmentregulation; our ability to complete capital raising transactions; and other factors (including the risks contained in the section of this AnnualReport entitled “Risk Factors”) relating to our industry, our operations and results of operations. Actual results may differ significantly fromthose anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all ofthem. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including thesecurities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forwardlooking statements to conform these statements to actualresults.Item 1. BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

When used in this Report, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,”“plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forwardlooking statements.Such statements, include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this Report relating to our business strategy, our future operatingresults and liquidity and capital resources outlook. Forwardlooking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptionsregarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward–looking statements relate to the future, they are subject toinherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from thosecontemplated by the forwardlooking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees of assurance of futureperformance. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forwardlooking statements. Important factors that could cause actualresults to differ materially from those in the forwardlooking statements include, without limitation, our ability to raise capital to fund continuingoperations; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; the impact of any infringement actions or other litigation brought against us;competition from other providers and products; our ability to develop and commercialize products and services; changes in governmentregulation; our ability to complete capital raising transactions; and other factors (including the risks contained in the section of this AnnualReport entitled “Risk Factors”) relating to our industry, our operations and results of operations. Actual results may differ significantly fromthose anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all ofthem. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including thesecurities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forwardlooking statements to conform these statements to actualresults.Item 1. BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

When used in this Report, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,”“plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forwardlooking statements.Such statements, include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this Report relating to our business strategy, our future operatingresults and liquidity and capital resources outlook. Forwardlooking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptionsregarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward–looking statements relate to the future, they are subject toinherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from thosecontemplated by the forwardlooking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees of assurance of futureperformance. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forwardlooking statements. Important factors that could cause actualresults to differ materially from those in the forwardlooking statements include, without limitation, our ability to raise capital to fund continuingoperations; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; the impact of any infringement actions or other litigation brought against us;competition from other providers and products; our ability to develop and commercialize products and services; changes in governmentregulation; our ability to complete capital raising transactions; and other factors (including the risks contained in the section of this AnnualReport entitled “Risk Factors”) relating to our industry, our operations and results of operations. Actual results may differ significantly fromthose anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all ofthem. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including thesecurities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forwardlooking statements to conform these statements to actualresults.Item 1. BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property.

BusinessOur StrategyOur objective is to develop and commercialize our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune system is notfunctioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. This can be in cancer where Natural Killer (“NK”) cells are inactive andcontribute to a tumor’s evasion of the immune system and/or disease progression while Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”)proliferate to protect the tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system or this can be other diseases such as neurologic and metabolicdiseases where chronic inflammation results in innate immune system dysfunction and disease progression. Our initial focus will be thetreatment of cancer solid tumors and treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease. In cancer, we plan to pursue two parallel development programs: (1) withINKmune our first drug candidate, we will initially focus on treating women with relapse refractory ovarian carcinoma; (2) with INB03, we willtreat patients with advanced cancers with elevated biomarkers of inflammation including elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. Our third drugcandidate XPro1595, targets Alzheimer’s Disease which we initiated once we received a nondilutive funding from the Alzheimer’s Associationas a $1 million US dollar ParttheCloud Award (as described below). Once resources are available, we intend to expand our developmentprograms with INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 into high risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes (“MDS”), a combination therapy trial with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors in patients with resistant or refractory to checkpoint inhibitors and other neurodegenerative diseases respectively. Theprincipal components of our strategy to achieve this objective are to: 3Table of Contents·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of oncology patients with our leadproduct candidates, INKmune and INB03;·pursue development strategies and regulatory approval pathways that allow the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases in patientswith our lead product candidates, XPro1595;·adopt a product development strategy that solidifies our existing intellectual property (“IP”) to prevent competition and expand ourIP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas;·provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payers, such as managed care companies or government programs like Medicare, tomerit reimbursement for our product candidates; and·enter into collaborations with other pharmaceutical companies with respect to, among other things, our INKmune and INB03 productcandidates and other products that will benefit from development or marketing beyond our current resources.Pursue development and regulatory approval pathways. We believe INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 may be approvable underpathways that are potentially shorter than those typically available for drug products based on novel active ingredients, including as an orphandrug under the Orphan Drug Act and approval under the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) Accelerated Approval Program (see“Government Regulation”). We have not yet had a discussion with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”)and/or FDA regarding such designation, but plan to do so in 2019. We believe both our high risk MDS and ovarian carcinoma treatmentprograms fit the criteria used by the FDA to grant these regulatory designations. We believe that it would take a minimum of six months toreceive Orphan Drug status once we submit an application and a minimum of 12 months to receive a designation once we submit an application.We might never have these discussions, submit applications under the Orphan Drug Act as the FDA Accelerated Approval Program or havethese applications approved if we do.Adopt a twopronged patent strategy. We are pursuing a twopronged product development strategy that will seek to solidify ourexisting IP to prevent competition, and expand our IP suite into related immunotherapeutic areas. We are confident that our core inlicensed IP(see “Intellectual Property”) will allow us both freedomtooperate and provide robust protection from outside competition. We will continue toinvest in expanding our patent suite. We will also seek to further to strengthen our IP position by looking to inlicense IP related toimmunotherapeutic strategies focused on the innate immune system.Provide clear value propositions to thirdparty payors to merit reimbursement for our product candidates. We are designing ourclinical development programs to demonstrate compelling, competitive advantages to patients and prescribers, and also to demonstrate valuepropositions to thirdparty payors. We believe the use of INKmune and/or INB03 in patients with a high risk of tumor progression and deathfrom tumor should prolong survival, improve the patient’s quality of life and decrease the total cost of care for patients with these lethalmalignancies. For example, ovarian cancer patients relapse frequently. Each relapse requires an expensive, hospitalbased treatment regimen thathas decreasing benefits. Treatment with INKmune as an outpatient may provide a more durable remission and limit the need for treatmentassociated hospitalizations. At the patient level, we believe INKmune and INB03 therapy, once approved, should improve survival and qualityof life. At the payor level, we believe INKmune, once approved, should provide more predictable costs and outcomes. Therapies for Alzheimer’sdisease are needed for medical, social and economic reasons. The cost of Alzheimer’s disease to the government is large and growing. The costto families and care givers is real and burdensome. We believe treatment of patients with dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, may provide astrategy to alter the costly dynamic of this disease in society today.4Table of ContentsEnter into collaborations to maximize the value of our technology. We believe there are two reasons for us to enter intocollaborations with other companies. The first is the further development of INKmune, INB03 and XPro1595 by either providing additionalinnovations to the product, including combination therapy strategies, and/or providing resources to improve the speed and breadth of thedevelopment process. The second is to optimize the commercialization of our products either globally or regionally. The ideal partner will benefitus in both ways.We continue to look for ways to utilize our unique capabilities to optimize clinical application of cell therapies. We believe that we haveidentified a way to manufacture human mesenchymal stem cells for the medical research and biotech community that offers large volumes ofhighquality, low passage human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells with minimal batchtobatch variability. We believe this may solve theproblem associated with supplying an adequate supply of human mesenchymal stem cells for clinical applications. The process to producepooled, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells was developed at University College London. We have established a reliable supply ofhuman umbilical cords based on our agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank in the United Kingdom. We have developed avalidated manufacturing process that reliably produces contract manufacturer of the clinical grade (“cGMP”) quality mesenchymal stem cells.The manufacturing process can be performed at a contract manufacturing site under the direction of Mark Lowdell, the Company’s CSO. We arenegotiating an exclusive license to the manufacturing process from University College London Business, the licensing organization ofUniversity College London. We will seek academic laboratories and biopharma companies who need a reliable source of high quality pooledhuman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for research of and development of clinical products. Once identified, we plan to act as a cGMPfor the development of therapeutic products by utilizing contract manufacturers. Because the production of the product is not continuous, wedo not expect to engage a contract manufacturer until we have a customer identified. We have identified several contract manufacturers in theUK that have the capability to produce cGMP stem cells. To date, the investment in this project has been approximately $50,000 USD plusmanagement time. We expect the commercial arrangement with academic laboratories or biopharma companies to be a combination of feeforservice and licensing that does not require additional investment by us. We will be opportunistic in pursuing therapeutic opportunities for ourown portfolio with this platform in the future if resources become available. The regulatory path for therapeutic applications of the mesenchymalstem cell products is well established and similar to the regulatory approval process for other cell therapies. We will only be responsible forregulatory compliance related to manufacturing of the mesenchymal stem cells when the product is being developed by a third party. Whendeveloping a therapeutic product for the Company’s commercial portfolio, the Company will be responsible for all aspects of the regulatoryprocess. The license from University College London Business unit for the manufacturing process to produce large quantities of high qualitypooled, human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells is in late stages of negotiation. We cannot guarantee that the negotiations will be successful.If the negotiations are not successful, we will not pursue the mesenchymal stem cell program in the near future. As such, this program is in thevery early stages of development and may not continue as a clinical program within the Company.Overview of Immunotherapy for CancerThe immune system has two parts, innate and adaptive. The innate immune system is the body’s first line of defense against aninfection, providing immediate, nonspecific responses to eliminate harmful cells in the body. Components of the innate immune system includecytokines, chemokines, macrophages, neutrophils and NK cells, among others.The adaptive immune system is often initially triggered by the innate immune system, mounts a delayed response against diseased cellsand plays a role protecting against reinfection. An adaptive immune response is highly specific to a particular pathogen or antigen and isdeveloped or learned from prior exposure. Key components of the adaptive immune system include antibodies which bind to antigens and markthem for destruction by other immune cells, Bcells which produce these antibodies upon exposure to antigens, and Tcells which attack andeliminate the diseased cells.The biopharmaceutical industry has made significant advances in harnessing specific components of innate and adaptive immunesystems for therapeutic use. Some of these approaches are summarized below.5Table of ContentsCytokines. One of the early applications of immunotherapy is the use of cytokines, including interferons and interleukin2 (“IL2”).Interferons are molecules that inhibit the growth and replication of diseased cells and stimulate innate immune cells to attack them. They havebeen used as standard of care for hepatitis B and C and multiple sclerosis, and to a lesser extent, as treatment for certain cancers, includingchronic myeloid leukemia, cutaneous Tcell lymphoma, myeloma and nonHodgkin’s lymphoma. However, the use of interferons has generallydecreased over the years due to serious adverse events (e.g., flulike symptoms and dramatic weight loss) and introduction of new therapieswith higher efficacy, better safety profiles and more convenient administration. IL2 activates Tcells and NK cells to attack diseased cells. IL2is used to treat select cancers, but due to its relatively poor safety profile, physicians often only resort to this therapy for the most advancedsettings. Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (“TNF”) is the focus of INB03. TNF biology has four elements that include two cytokines, soluble TNFand transmembrane TNF (“sTNF” and “tmTNF,” respectively), and two receptors, TNF Receptor 1 and 2 (“TNFR1” and “TNFR2”). The biologyof TNF ligation of TNFR varies dramatically based in what elements of the TNF system that are used. sTNF binding to TNFR1 is responsible forinflammation and cell death while sTNF binding to TNFR2 promotes proliferation of regulatory T cells (“Treg”). In patients with advancedcancers, increased sTNF is not favorable to longterm survival. tmTNF can bind either TNFR to improve the immune response, promote cellsurvival and stimulate remyelination. In brief, sTNF is the “bad” TNF and tmTNF is the “good” TNF. In patients with cancer, infection orneurologic disease, blockade of tmTNF function has negative consequences such as immunosuppression, increased infection anddemyelination.Antibody therapy. Antibodies exist in three formats; monoclonal (“mAbs”), oligo/polyclonal and antibodydrug conjugates. mAbsrepresent an effective therapeutic modality and are important to the treatment paradigm of various diseases. Recent insights into the detailedmechanism of mAbs link their strong disease fighting potential to the immune system. Drug manufacturers have leveraged mAbs’ ability toinduce an antibodydependent cellmediated cytotoxicity, or ADCC effect to develop better treatments that prolong survival and quality of lifeof patients. In addition, mAbs designed to inhibit specific checkpoints in the immune system have demonstrated strong immune responses andtherapeutic benefit in patients. However, the degree of efficacy of these therapies is heavily reliant on the immune system of patients, many ofwhom are severely immunocompromised. For example, despite over $1.0 billion of sales generated by recently launched PD1 and PDL1checkpoint inhibitors, they are reported to be generally only effective in approximately 10% to 25% of the addressable patient population. Inaddition, mAbs are manufactured through a complex process that requires purification of cell products created from a cell line. Polyspecificantibodies, for example bispecific antibodies, are able to target more than one antigen. These are often used to bring and effector T cell incontact with a target cell. Antibody drug conjugates are mAbs attached to a toxin, chemotherapy or radio therapy that delivers the cancer killingpayload directly to the cancer.Dendritic Cell Therapies. This approach is designed to indirectly stimulate a patient’s Tcells by leveraging the role of dendritic cells inpresenting antigens to Tcells. Cancer vaccines are the most common application of dendritic cells. The only FDAapproved dendritic celltherapy is PROVENGE, which entails collecting monocytes from the patient, maturing them into dendritic cells, “loading” ex vivo with thepatient’s cancer antigens, and then reinfusing in the patient. Currently, this process is cumbersome and expensive, and again, relies on an intactand effective immune system of the patient. There are additional ongoing preclinical studies and clinical trials being conducted by ourcompetitors aimed at addressing certain of the limitations associated with this approach. To date, current clinical results of dendritic celltherapies have been mixed.CART and TCR Therapies. Tcells recognize diseased cells by receptors engaging with antigens that are present on or inside thediseased cells. CART therapy entails genetically engineering Tcells to express synthetic CARs that direct Tcells to antigens on the surface ofcancer cells. TCR therapy modifies Tcells to express highaffinity tumor specific TCRs that recognize intracellular antigens that must bepresented on the surface of target cells. In early clinical trials, CART and TCR therapies have demonstrated impressive antitumor activity in anarrow spectrum of hematologic cancers and garnered significant attention by research institutions and biopharmaceutical companies. Webelieve a key limitation of adaptive autologous immunotherapy is the need to retrieve noncompromised immune cells from a cancer patientwhich requires a complex and costly manufacturing process to develop the therapy. The complexity of this personalized process is reflected inthe price of the two approved therapies. CART therapies tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel for advanced leukemia and lymphomarespectively. The cost of a single therapy is many hundreds of thousands of dollars. As a consequence of this need to harvest active Tcells,current Phase I clinical trials for autologous CART cell therapy in large part enroll patients from highly selected, often relatively earlystagedisease in a narrow spectrum of cancers, including bulky hematological cancers. In addition, Phase I clinical trials of CART cell immunotherapyhave reported severe adverse toxicities of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, requiring hospitalization, preconditioning and, in someinstances, intensive care unit admission following side effects associated with cytokine release syndrome. As a result, though our competitorscontinue to develop their CART and TCR product candidates with the goal of addressing certain of the limitations associated with theseapproaches, we believe these serious challenges may limit their potential and use in a variety of indications, including solid tumors.6Table of ContentsCheckpoint Inhibitors. Immune cells express proteins that are immune checkpoints that control and downregulate the immuneresponse. These are best defined in T lymphocytes and include PD1, CTLA4, TIM3 and LAG3. Tumor cells express the ligands to thesereceptors. When T cells bind the ligand to these proteins on the tumor cells, the T cell is turned off and does not attempt to attack the tumorcell. Thus, checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”) are part of the complex strategy used by the tumor to evade the patient’s immune system and areresponsible for resistance to immunotherapy. Biopharmaceutical companies have successfully developed CPI that block the receptor/ligandinteraction to promote the adaptive immune response to the tumor. Six CPI are currently approved, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, atezolizumab,avelumab, durvalumab, and ipilimumab for a wide variety of solid tumors including melanoma, lung, bladder, gastric cancers and others. MoreCPI are in development and more tumor types will be added to the list of sensitive tumors over the next years. CPI have become the backbone ofcancer therapy and are expected to be the best selling class of drugs by 2027.NK Cells. NK cells typically represent approximately 2% to 13% of circulating lymphocytes and are a critical component of the immunesystem responsible for innate immunity. Unlike adaptive immune cells, they are ever present and ready to attack, having the inherent ability todetect and eliminate diseased cells without the need for antigen presentation, which is why they are called “natural killers.”NK cells bind to stress ligands expressed by the diseased cells and directly eliminate them. This binding induces NK cells to releasecytokines, including, interferons and GMCSF, which are integral in recruiting additional innate and adaptive immune responses by the host. NKcells also represent a critical effector cell for ADCC, whereby target cells bound with human antibodies, whether made by the patient’s body oradministered, are selectively destroyed by the NK cells.MDSC Cells: MDSC are present in very low quantities in healthy patients. MDSC develop and proliferate in patients with chronicinfection and with cancer. In cancer, MDSC are a unique and welldefined cell population that home to the cancer and secreteimmunosuppressive cytokines that provide a protective, immunosuppressive shield to the tumor. This protective immunosuppressive shieldprevents the patient’s immune system from attacking the tumor. The presence of MDSC in the tumor microenvironment and/or circulating in thepatient’s blood predict for more advanced disease, resistance to immunotherapy and a worse patient survival.INKmune: Our NK cell Directed Product CandidateINKmune is our lead product candidate that converts resting NK cells into primed NK cells, an essential step in them becomingactivated cancerkilling NK cells. We have shown this works ex vivo in human tissue cell cultures, and we believe that this will work in vivowhich is the purpose of our planned clinical trials.·Cancers grow and relapse because they evade the immune system. NK cells are the most important cell for the elimination of residualdisease that causes cancer relapse. NK cells target cells based on a series of complex antigens on the cancer cell surface that signalthe NK cells to activate and kill the cancer cell. We call these cancer antigens “priming signals” and “triggering signals” respectively.An NK cell must receive a series of multiple signals through a network of cell surface receptors constituting of both priming andtriggering signals. Crucially, we have shown that the priming signals can be delivered independent of the triggering such that onecell, such as INKmune, may deliver priming signals and the patient cancer cell deliver the second set and induce killing. Cancer cellsdefective in priming signals evade NK killing so the cancer cell survives and grows. Both priming and triggering signals are not asingle surface molecule on the NK cell, but a complex combination of signals from multiple cell surface ligands which lead to NKpriming and triggering respectively. Cancer cells also express molecules which can inhibit NK cell priming and triggering and the finaloutcome of the NKcancer cell conjugation is a balance of all of these signals. In summary, INKmune shifts that balance ofstimulating and inhibitory signals to enhance the ability of resting NK cells to kill a wide range of patient cancers. [Sabry LowdellFrontiers, North et al JI and Sabry et al JI and Tsirogianni et al AmJ Hematol]. This concept is shown in the schematic form in Figure1 below.7Table of Contents·The main “job” of a cancer cell is to survive and grow. Unfortunately, the “successful” cancer cell ultimately kills the host. The firstpriority for survival is to evade NK cell killing. The vast majority, >98%, of cancer cells do this by downregulating expression ofpriming ligands. When an NK cell interrogates a cancer cell lacking sufficient priming signals the NK cell is unable to trigger lysis.This allows the cancer to evade NK cell killing to grow, and, we believe, is one of the causes of cancer relapse.·We have described the functional biology underlying the interaction of NK cells and cancer cells. We believe that we have learnedto counteract the loss of the priming signals by artificially providing these signaling ligands to the resting NK cell by exposure to aproprietary tumor cell line which constitutively expresses them. We call this product candidate INKmune. When we deliver INKmuneto a resting NK cell, it provides priming signals to convert the resting NK cell in to a tumor primed NK cell (“TpNK”). TpNK arepoised to kill any cancer cell that expresses adequate triggering ligands. Based on our extensive preclinical testing, we believe thiscovers a large and heterogenous array of primary human cancers including hematologic malignancies such as acute myelogenousleukemia, multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and solid tumors such as breast, prostate, renal, lung, and ovarian cancer. The TpNK bindsto the cancer cell, becomes an activated NK cell that will kill the cancer cell that was previously resistant to NK cell killing. Based onthe preclinical data, we believe INKmune will convert the patient’s resting NK cells to primed NK cells will allow the patient’s NKcells to kill their tumor.·We believe there are advantages of NK cells primed with INKmune (TpNK) compared to cytokine primed NK cells (“LAK”) ormonoclonal antibody targeted NK cells (“MabNK”). Both LAK and MabNK require the priming/targeting agent to be present at alltimes for the NK cell to be a cancer killing cell. As soon as the cytokine or Mab are removed, the NK cell becomes a resting NK cellthat cannot kill the cancer cell. INKmune provides a sustained “on” switch even after the INKmune reagent has been removed. OnceINKmune causes the resting NK cell to become a TpNK, the NK cell remains primed and ready to kill until its lytic capacity has beenexhausted by lysis of tumor cells. The second advantage is that TpNK do not require a specific target compared to MabNK.Trastuzumab (Herceptin™), a Mab targeting HER2 on breast cancer is an illustrative example. Women with HER2 positive breastcancer, 20% of all women with breast cancer, can be treated with and benefit from Herceptin immunotherapy. Unfortunately, the other80% who are HER2 negative, have a worse survival rate because they can not avail themselves to Trastuzumab immunotherapy.INKmune may benefit the women with HER2 negative breast cancer. We believe the preclinical and clinical data using tumor primedNK cells indicates that signals delivered by cancer cells are adequate to provide priming and activation of NK cells to kill the cancerand possibly eliminate the need for MabNK.8Table of Contents·We have demonstrated TpNK killing of many tumor types in laboratory studies. Tumor priming is effective regardless of the sourceof the NK cells and in many types of tumors – both cell lines and primary tumors from patients. The principle of TpNK killing hasalso been demonstrated in two Phase I trials in patient with acute myelogenous leukemia (“AML”). These trials were not supportedby us and used a firstgeneration personalized cell therapy product. In these trials, haploidentical NK cells obtained from a firstdegree relative by leukapheresis were primed exvivo using a lysate of a tumor cell. Once the TpNK therapy has been produced andpassed quality testing, the patient received conditioning therapy with chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and fludarabine), theprimed haploidentical NK cells were given to patients by intravenous infusion. Two Phase I clinical trials have been performedusing the firstgeneration treatment strategy. An investigator initiated trial performed at the Royal Free Hospital in London 2005 wasfunded by a UK charity. Fifteen patients with relapsed, highrisk AML were enrolled in the trial. Because of dropout due to diseaseprogression, delays in product production and complications of conditioning therapy, only 7 of the fifteen patients were treated withthe TpNK cell product. Four of seven patients showed clear benefit from the treatment with the TpNK product with prolongedrelapse free remission and, in one patient, conversion of a partial remission to full remission. None of the remissions were durable; allpatients ultimately died from disease progression. The safety of the product was found to be a combination of toxicity from thechemotherapy conditioning regimen and the TpNK therapy. In general, the complications were well tolerated although did requiremedical intervention including prolonged periods of aplasia in two heavily pretreated patients that resolved with supportive care.The results of this study have been published in a medical journal (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0123416. eCollection 2015). In 2013, a second open label, multicenter trial was performed in the US usingvirtually the same product and procedures but targeting a slightly different patient population. In the second trial, 12 patients in firstremission with AML were treated with the haploidentical TpNK product produced using the first generation exvivo primingprocess. After conditioning with chemotherapy, the patients received TpNK in three dosing cohorts – 3x10^5, 1x10^6 or 3X10^6TpNK per kilogram. Patients were followed for safety and relapse free survival. This trial confirmed the safety of the TpNK treatmentin patients with AML and reinforced many of the efficacy findings seen in the first trial. Patients benefited from haploidenticalTpNK therapy with prolonged relapse free survival including two patients that remain in remission more than 42 months aftertreatment. This trial has been published. (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi:10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.) The results of the laboratory and Phase I studies provide evidence that our strategy for treating residualdisease is sensible but unproven.·Because INKmune primes NK cells to target naturally occurring antigens, we believe INKmune can be used in to treat a wide varietyof cancers including hematologic malignancy (AML, MM, CML, high risk MDS) and solid tumors (renal, prostate, breast, ovarian,pancreas and lung). We expect the list of INKmune sensitive tumors to continue to expand.·The primary role for INKmune will be an immunotherapy targeting residual disease in patients after debulking cancer therapies suchas cytotoxic chemotherapy and surgery. At this time, we plan to give INKmune as monotherapy. We do not rule out the possibility ofusing INKmune as part of combination therapy in the future. We do not expect to need to modify INKmune to treat these additionaltypes of cancer, because we believe INKmune is a universal cancer therapy where “one size fits all”. We believe for INKmune toreceive regulatory approval for each cancer indication, clinical trials will need to be performed which demonstrate its safety andeffectiveness as a treatment for each such cancer. We believe the difficulty and cost of achieving these labels extensions will declinewith each successive approval, if and when achieved. For example, if INKmune is proven to be effective therapy in patients withovarian cancer and highrisk MDS, we will need to perform separate pivotal trials for approval in lung, prostate or renal cancer.9Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INKmune human clinical trials:INKmune GMP scaleup for Phase I/II clinical materialWe have contracted with, Advent Bioservices, a contract manufacturing organization to produce the master cell bank for INKmuneusing good manufacturing practice, or GMP, clinical material. Advent Bioservices used GMP manufacturing facilities leased from the Centre ofCell, Gene and Tissue Therapeutics (“CCGTT”) at the Royal Free Hospital. The working cell banks and individual INKmune product to be usedin the patients for the clinical trial will be produced at the Royal Free Hospital in the CCGTT. All manufacturing has been under the direction ofProfessor Mark Lowdell. The Company is on target to produce enough INKmune to complete the Phase I/II clinical trials in women with ovariancancer and in patients with highrisk MDS by the end of the second half of 2020. We may need additional INKmune for future clinical trials.Planning for site of manufacture and the financing for that manufacturing has not been made at this point.INKmune Biomarker Development ProgramWe have discovered two biomarker strategies that we believe can be used to demonstrate: i) who should receive INKmune therapy; ii) ifthe INKmune therapy is working; and iii) when INKmune therapy should be repeated. For the initial Phase I/II trials in patients with ovariancancer, we expect the biomarker testing will be performed in a single laboratory under our direction. In the near future, we will develop assaysystems with standard operating procedures to ensure uniform testing of the biomarker across clinical sites. This will facilitate expansion of theclinical programs to multiple sites. We anticipate that, in the future, the biomarker program may be a surrogate marker for both clinicaleffectiveness and marketing purposes.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INKmune DevelopmentWe met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”), the UK version of the FDA as part of a ScientificAdvice Meeting in September 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to explain to the MHRA our manufacturing process and clinical plan for thedevelopment of INKmune in a Phase I/II trial in relapse/refractory ovarian cancer. The MHRA provided positive feedback on our manufacturingand clinical plans. We submitted a Clinical Trial Authorization (“CTA”) in the fourth quarter of 2018 to support the ovarian cancer Phase I/II trialin the United Kingdom, which was accepted on December 18, 2018. We are in the process of completing the steps to open two clinical sites toperform the Phase I portion of the clinical trial. We have not chosen sites for the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. 10Table of ContentsINKmune Product Development Path Proposed Phase I/II Study in patients with cancerBy the first quarter of 2019, we plan to initiate an open label Phase I/II cancer study in patients with ovarian carcinoma. Patients will beenrolled who have a low burden of relapse refractory disease and have peripheral blood or ascites NK cells which can respond to INKmune in alaboratory test on NK function. The study design agreed upon after discussion with the MHRA on September 12, 2017 will be a twostep PhaseI/II study. In the Phase I to be performed under a CTA issued on at the University College of London Hospital in London and South HamptonUniversity Hosptials, both clinical sites in the UK. We expect to initiate trial by the second quarter of 2019. In the Phase I trial, women withrelapse refractory ovarian cancer will be treated with INKmune, given as an intraperitoneal infusion through an indwelling peritoneal catheter ina traditional open label study to demonstrate safety and determine the dose of INKmune to be carried into the larger Phase II portion of thestudy. Based on preclinical studies that indicate that women with relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer have NK cells in their peritoneal cavitythat response to INKmune to kill SKOV3, an ovarian cell line, we believe intraperitoneal delivery of INKmune will be therapeutically effective.Three clinical trials support this observation. Two clinical trials have been performed using the first generation haploidentical TpNK product inpatients with AML. Both of those studies have been published (PLoS One. 2015 Jun 10;10(6):e0123416. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0123416.eCollection 2015) and (Biol Blood Marrow Transplant. 2018 Mar 26. pii: S10838791(18)301320. doi: 10.1016/j.bbmt.2018.03.019.). In summary, thestudies showed that TpNK therapy, when delivered by intravenous infusion after conditioning therapy, was effective in providing prolongremissions with a toxicity profile that was manageable. TpNK therapy has not been delivered via intraperitoneal infusion, but a similar treatmentstrategy is used for the delivery of TALL104 cells. TALL104 is a replication incompetent human MHC nonrestricted cytotoxic Tcell leukemiccell line that has been extensively studied and used to treat a number of cancers. Currently, Galileo Research, an Italian biotech company, hasused TALL104 in a Phase II clinical trial to treat women with ovarian cancer (http://www.galileoresearch.it/en/pipeline/TALL104.html). In thatstudy, TALL104 is delivered via intraperitoneal infusion. Although the efficacy of the therapy is not yet known, the therapy is well toleratedwith toxicities mainly related to the infusion catheter, not related to the TALL104 infusion. The primary end points of the INKmune Phase I trialare safety and determining the dose of INKmune to take into the Phase II portion of the clinical trial. The key secondary efficacy endpoints tobe studied are i) increased NK cell priming as determined by multicolor flow cytometry of NK cells from the patient; ii) increased NK cell killingof SKOV3 tumor in a bioassay as shown in Figure 2 below; and iii) a decrease in tumor burden as measured by CA125 levels in the blood. Oncesafety and the optimal INKmune dose have been determined, a randomized study of women treated with INKmune will be compared to a groupof control patients who receive only standard of care. We expect to treat six patients in the Phase I portion of the trial, but this number canincrease by as many as 18. The Phase II portion of the protocol will enroll 30 patients in a 2:1 randomization (20 active: 10 control). In both trials,in addition to immunologic monitoring of NK activation status and ability to kill tumors, CA125, a serologic biomarker of tumor burden andmedical imaging studies of tumor burden will be used to determine the effect of INKmune therapy on the patient’s ovarian cancer. The primaryendpoint in the Phase II portion of the study will be improved relapse free survival in INKmune patients compared to control patients.Secondary endpoints should provide evidence of improved immunologic function, improved NK medicated killing of tumor cells in a bioassayand a decrease in tumor burden by both imaging and measurement of CA125 in blood. The Phase II proofofconcept study should allow us toaccurately design future studies for regulatory approval. The dose and frequency of intraperitoneal INKmune therapy will be finalized duringthe Phase I portion of the trial. We are planning at least 5 treatments with of INKmune therapy IP over a 3 month period. If patients areresponding, the attending physician may decide to extend the therapy beyond the planned therapy as compassionate use. We are prepared tosupport these patients with INKmune therapy as dictated by their response to therapy. The Phase II portion of the study will be expanded toother clinical sites in the United Kingdom. We may choose to open Phase II clinical sites in the US. This will require us to submit anInvestigational New Drug (IND) application to the FDA using the Phase I data.11Table of ContentsINKmune Registration Studies and/or PartneringAfter completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies with INKmune, we will decide whether to continue to develop INKmune as atreatment for ovarian carcinoma indication and/or expand into other tumor types such as high risk MDS. We expect to have biopharma partnersparticipate in this decision. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage or partner INKmune. Although our development strategy is focusedon North America and Europe, we believe INKmune will also be attractive for markets on the Pacific Rim, South Asia and South America, butwill wait for partners to help with the development in those regions, however, at this time, we are not negotiating with any potential partners.INKmune Regulatory StrategyINKmune is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. We believe that registration trials will need to be designed as randomized trials in patients withcancer where one group of patients received INKmune and another receive best available care. We received advice from the MHRA onSeptember 12, 2017 on the design clinical trial for ovarian cancer. We plan to perform the Phase I trial with INKmune in the United Kingdomunder a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). We plan to expand the Phase II program to additional sites in the United Kingdom and the US. Wewill meet with the FDA once we have data from the Phase I trial. We plan to file an IND with the FDA to allow us to expand the Phase II clinicaltrial in to the US. Because there are no therapies similar to INKmune approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatoryopportunities afforded to therapies that treat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation andexpedited programs for approval including Accelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priorityreview (see “Government Regulation”). We cannot predict which of these programs we will benefit from, if any at all, without furtherdiscussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EU with the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”).Emerging Market OpportunityThe cancer therapy market is large, diverse and competitive. Although the concept of immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies hasbeen around for more than 20 years, the concept that patient derived immunosuppressive factors was a barrier to effective cancer treatment wasrecently recognized and had its first therapy approved just four years ago (ipilimumab, Yervoy, BMS, March 2011). Since then, five additional“check point” inhibitors have been approved, but the market is in its infancy. Most of the focus on strategies for modulating tumorbasedimmunosuppression focus is on the adaptive immune system (“Tcells”). The role of, and the importance of manipulating the innate immunesystem has more recently become a target of therapeutic development. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and are critical in bothtumor surveillance (prevention) and treatment (killing). Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSC”) are part of the innate immune system thatonly appear once the patient has chronic inflammation, a common occurrence in patients with cancer. The main role of the MDSC is to protectthe tumor from attack by the patient’s immune system. Because Tcell focused strategies do not have an effect on the innate immune system,patient’s receiving such treatments may fail to recruit half of the patient’s immune system, the innate immune system, to attack the patient’scancer. Clinicians increasingly recognize that durable responses to cancer require a coordinated attack by the patient’s adaptive and innateimmune system. Normalizing the response of the innate immune system requires eliminating the dysregulated innate immune response thatdecreases the patient’s ability to see and attack the cancer as well as mechanisms the protect the cancer from immunologic attack (effector andprotector function respectively). INKmune primes NK cells to enable them to attack the tumor. INB03, by decreasing the proliferation andfunction of MDSC, will lessen the immunosuppressive shield that protects the tumor from immunologic attack and, through NK/DC crosstalk,recruit the adaptive immune system to the fight.Challenges in the Market for Our Product CandidatesThe market for new oncology therapies is busy, complicated and rapidly evolving. We will be competing with companies that are older,larger, better financed and have greater experience. There are two types of drug companies – development companies and commercialcompanies. Development companies take the risk of developing new products to proofofconcept. Once proofofconcept has been achieved, ifthe drug provides clinical benefit, the product is usually acquired by a commercial company, which completes the drug’s clinical developmentand markets the product. We are a development company which will seek to develop products such as INKmune from the bench to the bedsideto demonstrate proofofconcept. The goal for us is to successfully develop such products to the point where they are attractive targets forpotential partners/acquirers.12Table of ContentsAccording to a recent Markets and Markets report, the immunotherapy market is growing rapidly at an annual rate of over 13%.Recently, the market is biased towards T cellbased immunotherapies including bispecific antibody therapies, checkpoint inhibitors and CARTcellbased therapies. There are substantial numbers of clinical trials that are focused on the adaptive immune system versus clinical trials thatare focused on the innate immune system for the treatment of cancer. Our challenge will be to educate partners on the value of NK cellbasedtherapeutic strategies. The need to educate people of the importance of INB03 is equally challenging. At the academic level, there is recognitionthat therapies targeting MDSC are needed to improve the results of immunotherapies. Investors and potential partners are only now learningabout MDSC. We will be responsible for educating them on the importance of MDSC and why INB03 may be an important addition to theoncologist’s armamentarium. We believe educating investors and partners about new therapeutic opportunities is an easier task than trying todifferentiate our company from the many other cancer immunotherapy companies. We plan to use a combination of publication, presentationand investor relations to promote INKmune and INB03 and to educate the clinical, biopharma and investor community on the value of thesenovel therapeutic approaches.INKmune CompetitionOur industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technological change. Our potential competitors include largepharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, specialty pharmaceutical and generic drug companies, academic institutions, governmentagencies and research institutions. We believe that key competitive factors that will affect the development and commercial success of ourproduct candidates are efficacy, safety, tolerability, reliability, price and reimbursement level. Many of our potential competitors, including manyof the organizations named below, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we do and significantly greaterexperience in the discovery and development of product candidates, obtaining FDA and other regulatory approvals of products and thecommercialization of those products. Accordingly, our competitors may be more successful than us in obtaining FDA approval for andachieving widespread market acceptance of their drugs. Our competitors’ drugs may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold,than any drug we may commercialize and may render our product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses ofdeveloping and commercializing any of our product candidates. We anticipate that we will face intense and increasing competition as new drugsenter the market and advanced technologies become available. Further, the development of new treatment methods for the conditions we aretargeting could render our drugs noncompetitive or obsolete.INKmune is an immunotherapy that harnesses the biology of NK cells for the treatment of cancer. There is a long list of immunotherapystrategies for the treatment of cancer and the immunotherapy for cancer market is growing rapidly. There are at least three ways to classifyimmunotherapy for cancer. The list below classifies immunotherapy strategies beginning with those that are most closely related to INKmune:1.Companies in the NK cell therapy business;2.Companies in the personalized immuneoncology business; and3.Companies in the precision immunooncology business.We are not aware of any approved treatments that are classified as NK cell therapies. We are aware of three public companies in the NKcell therapy business: NantKwest, Fate Therapeutics and Fortress Biotech. These companies are developing products that involve replacing orsupplementing NK cells of the patient for the treatment cancer. Their product requires extensive exvivo cell manipulations which, with respectto NantKwest and Fate Therapeutics, may include gene therapy. The next larger group of companies are in the personalized immunooncologybusiness with products focused on T cell activation strategies. The most popular are the CART cell therapies which are a patient specific exvivo gene therapy approach to a single disease (for example: pediatric ALL). CART therapy has become wildly popular of late and includesmany private companies, newer public companies such as Bluebird, Juno Therapeutics and Mustang Bio as well as established companies suchas Novartis and Gilead. For many of the companies, CART cell therapies is their only business. For the latter two, CART cell therapies is anewly inlicensed program with marketing authorization in the US. Finally, the precision immuneoncology category also includes companieswith anticancer antibody products and the newer “checkpoint” inhibitors. Antibody therapies are all about “illuminating” the cancer to theinnate immune system (NK cells). Monoclonal antibodies were the original immunotherapy that drove the growth of wellknown biopharmacompanies including Genentech/Roche, Amgen, Merck and others. Each of these products is disease specific (ie: treat only HER2+ breastcancer). Modern therapeutic antibodies are much more complicated bispecific and trispecific antibodies that attempt to connect the cancerwith activated Tcells of the adaptive immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors are currently the most rapidly expanding product category inimmunooncology. These CTLA4 (ipilimumab) and PD1 inhibitors (pembrolizumab and nivolumab) specifically block a mechanism that shieldscancers from Tcell killing. The two companies in this business are Merck (pembrolizumab) and GSK (ipilimumab and nivolumab). There aremany others trying to join this promising therapeutic area including large companies such as BMS and Roche.13Table of ContentsThere are a number of FDA approved drugs that improve the ability of the innate immune system (NKcells) to treat cancer includingmonoclonal antibody therapies (for example: Rituximab®; Avastin® and Herceptin® marketed by Roche/Genentech); and “checkpoint”inhibitors (Yervoy® and Opdivo®, BMS, Keytruda®, Merck and others). There is a large amount of development activity in the immunecheckpoint inhibitor field from both pharmaceutical giants including AstraZeneca, Merck & Co, Pfizer, Merck KGaA, Roche, GSK, Novartis andAmgen and many startups, small companies and university spinoffs which have emerged in the past two years. Examples (in alphabeticalorder) include Agenus, Alligator Bioscience, Ambrx, AnaptysBio, argenx, Bioceros, BioNovion, Cellerant Therapeutics, CheckpointTherapeutics, Compugen, CureTech, Enumeral, Five Prime Therapeutics, Genmab, GITR, ImmuNext, IOmet Pharma, iTeos Therapeutics, JounceTherapeutics, KAHR Medical, Multimeric Biotherapeutics, Nativis, Orega Biotech, Pelican Therapeutics, Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Prima BioMed,Redx Pharma, Sorrento Therapeutics, Tesaro, TG Therapeutics, Theravectys and ToleroTech active in the field. The list of companies with polyspecific antibodies that attempt to link the cancer with a cytotoxic T cell is long, includes both private and public companies (Amgen, Xencor, FStar, Merus and many others). Finally, two CART cell therapies were just approved for the treatment of ALL – Kymriah™ (Novartis) andYescarta™ (Gilead). We expect additional drugs to gain marketing authorization in the immuneoncology space.To our knowledge, there are three companies with NK cell immunotherapies in development. The first is Fortress Biotech(NASDAQ:FBIO) which is developing CNDO109 for the treatment of AML. CNDO109 is an allogeneic exvivo NK cell activation program thatutilizes live cancer cells to prime the related donor’s NK cells. The primed NK cells are then given to the patient with AML. This program hasentered a Phase I clinical trial in the US; the results of the trial highlighted in a previous section have recently been published. Prof. MarkLowdell, a founder of this Company, performed a single center trial in the United Kingdom using almost identical technology as CNDO109. Webelieve that the results of the trial were promising with several patients having a prolonged remission after a single treatment (Kottaridis et al.(2015). PLoS ONE 10(6):119). NantKwest, (NASDAQ Global Select Market) is an early stage biotech company that is using a geneticallyengineering strategy of a NK cell line to produce a live, offtheshelf NK cell product to treat a variety of cancers. The clinical data for thisproduct is sparse at this time. FateNK 100 and Engineered hnCD16iNK from Fate Therapeutics are product candidates designed to replace orsupplement NK cells in patients with cancer. For the practice reports that this enrolling a trial with FateNK 100 in women withrelapsed/refractory ovarian cancer.To our knowledge, there are no innate immune checkpoint inhibitors in development that have the unique characteristics of INB03 thatneutralize sTNF to: i) decreases the proliferation of MDSC; ii) decreasing local and systemic immunosuppression caused by MDSC by stoppingproduction of immunosuppressive cytokines and; iii) improving NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptive immune system to fight the cancer.14Table of ContentsINB03 CompetitionTo our knowledge, there are no other innate immune system checkpoint inhibitors in development that combine the characteristics ofdecreasing the population and function of MDSC while promoting NK/DC crosstalk that expands and recruits the adaptive immune response toattack the patient’s tumor. Lilly is developing LY3022855, a human IgG1 monoclonal antibody designed to target the CSF1R that should inhibitMDSC from receiving CSF1 signals, decreasing their survival and relieving the effect of MDSC in the tumor. Daiichi Sankyo Inc., incollaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, is testing DS8273a, a TRIALR2 agonistic antibody in combination with a PDL1 inhibitor to decreasethe number of MDSC in patients with colorectal cancer. Rgenix Inc., is developing RGX104, an orally bioavailable small moleculeimmunotherapy that targets LXR (liver X Receptor). RGX104 reportedly depletes MDSC. Syntrix Biosystems is developing SX682. SX682 is asmallmolecule dualinhibitor of CXCR1 and CXCR2, the chemokine receptors pivotal to tumor metastasis, therapyresistance, and myeloid cellsuppression of cancer surveillance by the adaptive immune system. By blocking the CXCR1/2 pathway, SX682 may prevent recruitment ofMDSC to the tumor microenvironment. The University of Minnesota has a trivalent antibody program aimed at treating patients with advancedhematologic malignancies. This CD16/IL15/CD33 (161533) TriSpecific Killer Engagers (TriKes) product may target CD33+ MDSC. SiamabTherapeutics is developing an antisialylTn monoclonal antibody that targets MDSC in some tumor types. Clathera Biosciences, incollaboration with Incyte, a US based biotech, is developing CB1158 (INCB01158), an arginase inhibitor to decreases MDSC. A Phase II clinicaltrial is open that combines CB1158 with nivolumab, an antiPD1 CPI marketed by Bristol Myers Squib. Reata Pharmaceuticals is testingomaveloxolone (RTA 408) in the phase Ib/II REVEAL trial in combination with either ipilimumab (Yervoy) or nivolumab (Opdivoo) in patientswith advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Currently approved nonselective TNF inhibitors, infliximab, etanercept, adalimumab andothers, are not considered direct competitors of INB03 in the treatment of cancer because of their mechanism of action and safety side effects.Non selective TNF inhibitors block the function of both sTNF and tmTNF. Blockade of tmTNF is immunosuppressive increasing the risk ofinfection and cancer in patients. This is shown in Figure 3 below where maintaining function to tmTNF by genetic or pharmacologic meansresults in an immunocompetent animal that can protect itself against infection. Blockade or knockout of both sTNF and tmTNF results in deathfrom infection.Intellectual PropertyThe INKmune product candidate is protected by a family of patents pending in the United States Patent & Trademark Office (the“USPTO”), in the International Bureau of the World Intellectual Property Organization (“WIPO”) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”),and in patent offices for various foreign jurisdictions.

(“Novamune”) (the “DevelopmentAgreement”). Novamune had previously developed and licensed technology relating to exvivo activation of NK cells for the treatment ofcancer and other diseases. The parties agreed to exclusively collaborate on the further development of technologies related to NK cells fortherapeutic applications. We will share equally in the costs related to such joint development projects and will jointly own any intellectualproperty developed by the joint projects, provided that Novamune shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectualproperty relating to exvivo applications, and we shall have an exclusive royalty free license to use any such intellectual property relating to invivo applications. The Development Agreement is subject to Novamune investing a total of $1,250,000 in our Company, of which $350,000 haspreviously been advanced through a convertible note payable. The balance of $900,000 was invested on February 9, 2018 in exchange for400,000 shares of common stock. The Development Agreement ends on September 3, 2023 unless terminated sooner. The term of theDevelopment Agreement may be extended for one year upon the written consent of both parties. The Development Agreement may beterminated prior to the end of the term by either party in the event of a material breach by the other party of the terms of the DevelopmentAgreement, provided that the terminating party is not in breach and has first given the defaulting party written notice of termination specifyingthe grounds for the terminating and if after giving the defaulting party 30 days to cure the breach, the breach was not cured.INKmune ManufacturingWe intend to contract with third parties for the manufacture of our compounds for investigational purposes, for preclinical and clinicaltesting and for any FDA approved products for commercial sale. Preclinical and clinical material for the early clinical trials with INKmune hasbeen manufactured under the direction of Mark Lowdell and Advent Bioservices International, our strategic partner, at a licensed GoodManufacturing Practice (“GMP”) facility. The master cell bank, working cell bank and individual product doses were completed in July 2018.This clinical material is planned for use in the Phase I/II clinical trials in ovarian cancer. If we raise adequate capital to initiate the highrisk MDSPhase I/II trials, additional working cell banks and therapeutic product will be produced from the existing master cell bank. This process takesapproximately 6 months and is not anticipated to delay the initiation of the highrisk MDS Phase I/II trials. We may transfer the manufacturing toa different commercial contract manufacturing organization after completion of these Phase II studies.22Table of ContentsHuman Mesenchymal Stem CellsIn November 2017, we entered into a Material Transfer and License Agreement with the Anthony Nolan Cord Blood Bank (“AN”), theoldest and largest nondirected cord blood bank in the United Kingdom for the supply the starting material for the mesenchymal stem cells umbilical cords not used after cord blood harvest. Mark Lowdell's research group developed and validated a methodology for producing largenumbers of clinicalgrade pooled human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (“HucMSC”). We believe the reproducible and reliablesupply of large quantities of highquality a may solve one of the major problems associated with the development of mesenchymal stem celltherapies for medicine. Under this agreement we were granted a license to produce and sell these cells for medical research, including clinicaltrials. The agreement provides that Immune Bio Internal shall pay to AN £200 plus VAT (if applicable) for each umbilical cord tissue sample (andany intellectual property, developed, or conceived by Immune Bio International in exercising its rights under the agreement (“LicensedProduct”)) Immune Bio International receives pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, during the entire term of the agreement, Immune BioInternational shall pay AN a royalty of 2% of the net sales of the Licensed Product. We believe we are well positioned to become a preferredmanufacturing partner for companies who need MSC for clinical programs. Manufacture of HucMSC is performed under the direction of MarkLowdell in a licensed GMP facility that is contracted to the Company as part of existing research and development agreements. The startingmaterial for the HucMSC product is provided by the AN. The HucMSC product produced in this facility are fully qualified to be used for eitherresearch or clinical trials. Currently, we plan to supply HucMSC to third parties for their research use and in clinical trials as part of thedevelopment process for commercial pro/ducts. We may decide to expand this agreement in the future if the commercial and/or developmentopportunities warrant such expansion. At the current time, we expect this program to be funded by revenues from commercial sales. Theagreement with AN terminates on November 29, 2027. AN may terminate the license on written notice to us, if a donor withdraws consent to thecontinued use of umbilical cord tissue samples that were obtained by AN. Additionally, either party may terminate the agreement on 30 daysprior written notice to the other if that other party materially breach any term of the agreement and such breaches (to the extent it is remediable)is not remedied within 30 days of the written request to the other party to do so.Our Innate Immune System Checkpoint inhibitor product candidateWe renamed XPRO1595, which we license from Xencor, to INB03 when it is used for cancer related indications. We will continue to callthe drug XPRO1595 when used for treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease discussed below. INB03 andXPRO1595 are the same drug with different names for marketing purposes. INB03 is a novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor that webelieve prevents proliferation of MDSC and decreases the secretion of immunosuppressive cytokines that protect the tumor from the patient’simmunologic attack and help make the tumor resistant to immunotherapy. INB03, by inhibiting soluble TNF without inhibiting transmembraneTNF or TNF receptors (“tmTNF” and “TNFR” respectively), alters the immunoregulatory cell and cytokine profile of the tumormicroenvironment to decrease the population of MDSC, decrease immunosuppressive cytokines and increase immunoregulatory cytokines thatchanges the patient’s immune response to their tumor with improved NK/DC crosstalk that causes expansion of the immune response includingrecruitment of the adaptive immune system with an increase in effector and cytotoxic T cells that attack the cancer. After treatment with INB03,we believe the patient’s dysregulated immune response, a hallmark of cancer progression and resistance to therapy, to be converted to acoordinated immune response that can attack in combination with immunotherapy. These immune responses have been studied in animalmodels of an inflammatory cancer, where 3methylcholanthrese is given to mice in a subcutaneous injection that causes the development ofmultiple cutaneous fibrosarcoma. This model was developed by Y Akamatsu in 1967 while working at the National Cancer Institute of the NIH.In research published by Professor Nikola Vujanovic in Cancer Immunology Research in 2016, treatment with INB03 resulted in smaller andfewer cancers with increased survival. INB03 is an engineered PEGylated protein that neutralizes human soluble TNF, a human inflammatorycytokine that is increased in patients with advanced cancer. By specifically neutralizing the cytokine, there is decreased phosphorylation ofSTAT3, an essential step required for the proliferation of the MDSC population, and secretion of the immunosuppressive cytokines. Thecombination of decreased MDSC proliferation and decreased immunosuppressive cytokines allows the immune system to respond to the tumor.This data was published in an article entitled Inhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Micein Cancer Immunology Research in Cancer Immunology Research 2016. In summary, INB03 functions as an innate immune system checkpointinhibitor by eliminating the population of MDSC that provides an immunosuppressive shield protecting the tumor, the patient’s immune systemis able to function normally to the benefit of the patient – it can attack the tumor.23Table of ContentsBecause INB03 targets the patient’s immune system and not the tumor, we believe INB03 is an immunotherapy that can be used to treatmany types of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors as part of combination therapy. The decision to use INB03 in a patient will be basedon biomarkers that should predict that a patient will benefit from treatment with the drug. MDSC rarely exist in patients without cancer orchronic inflammation. Because MDSC can be measured in the tumor and/or blood of patients with immune dysregulation and chronicinflammation caused by their cancer, MDSC blood levels i) have prognostic value predicting cancer stage and risk of dying from cancer; ii) maybe used as a biomarker to target patients who will benefit from INB03 therapy and iii) should be biomarkers demonstrating a pharmacodynamiceffect of INB03 therapy. We believe, if MDSC are present in significant numbers, the patient should benefit from INB03 treatment as part ofcombination therapy. Basing treatment decisions on the presence of MDSC is a precision medicine, biomarker directed immunotherapy strategythat should improve the probability of benefiting a patient and improve the value of INB03 therapy and decrease the risk of the clinicaldevelopment process. Although, INB03 can be used as part of combination of anticancer therapy including, but not limited to, cytotoxicchemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation therapy and/or surgery, our Phase I clinical trial will focus on using INB03 as monotherapy. This is atypical Phase I clinical trial design for firstinman trials in cancer. We expect to use INB03 as part of combination therapy with approvedcheckpoint inhibitors as part of Phase II development. We do not expect to need to modify INB03 therapy to treat each different type of cancer,because INB03 therapy targets the immune system, not the cancer. We do expect to develop the INB03 beyond Phase II to target a specific typeof cancer to meet the current system of regulatory approval. For instance, INB03 may be approved to treat patients with elevated MDSC whohave lung cancer. To get subsequent approval for the treatment of patients with breast cancer who have increased MDSC, we will need toperform a pivotal trial in women with breast cancer. After the first regulatory approval, if and when achieved, we believe the difficulty and costof achieving these labels extensions will decline with each successive approval. At this time, we cannot rule out if patients with biomarkers ofinflammation without elevated MDSC in blood, or patients without biomarkers of inflammation or MDSC in their blood will benefit fromtreatment with INB03. Those studies may be performed in the future, but they are not a priority.XPro1595 has neutralizes soluble TNF in the brain in exactly the same way INB03 neutralizes soluble TNF in the tumormicroenvironment but the effects of soluble TNF neutralization in the brain are different. The cause of the destructive neuroinflammation in thebrain is the microglial cell. The microglial cell is one of four cells in the neural unit that also includes astrocytes, oligodentrocytes and nervecells. Activated microglial cells are considered the resident macrophages of the brain. The primary role of microglial cells is to protect the neuralunit from infection. When innate immune dysfunction causes chronic inflammation, activated microglial cells produce soluble TNF thatactivates astrocytes. Activated glial cells cause nerve cell and oligodrocyte dysfunction that results in synaptic pruning, nerve cell death anddemyelination of neurons. These pathologies contribute, in part, to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, MS,Huntington’s disease, glaucoma and schizophrenia and may contribute to neuropsychiatric diseases such as depression, bipolar disease, sleepdisorders, autism and PTSD. In the setting of AD, microglial activation causes dendritic pruning, synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death thatcontributes to cognitive decline and the behavioral manifestations of AD including depression, aggressiveness, sleep disorders, hallucinationsand anhedonia. Elimination of microglial activation should reverse these symptoms. Because soluble TNF is the apex cytokine in theinflammatory cytokine cascade, neutralization of soluble TNF with XPro1595 should prevent glial activation and normalizes function of theneural unit.INB03 and XPro1595 is delivered as a subcutaneous injection, similar to an insulin treatment, given one to three times per week.Because this is a simple subcutaneous injection similar to an insulin injection (the therapy patients give themselves for treatment of Type 1diabetes mellitus), we expect patients to administer the therapy to themselves and not require expensive or logistically challenging clinic visitsto receive the therapy24Table of ContentsThree step process to preparation for INB03 and XPro1595 human clinical trials:Release of INB03 and XPro1595 drug supplyGMP INB03 and XPro1595 are available for clinical development after completion of release testing. The annual process for releasetesting was completed in February 2018 and January 2019. The process started in November 2017 and October 2018 respectively. The supply ofINB03 is limited, but enough to complete the planned Phase I and Phase II studies in oncology. The rerelease dossier has been submitted to theregulatory authorities in Australia. We received notification on May 21, 2018 that the INB03 can be used for clinical trials in AUS. For futuretrials, new batches INB03 and XPro1595 will need to be produced. We plan to use a twostep approach to production of the new drug supply.We hope to improve the yield of the drug product using the existing E.coli based system. Once the new process is validated and functional, wewill perform a manufacturing campaign when resources are available. We do not expect the drug supply to limit the clinical developmentprogram in oncology. We expect to start the process of manufacturing improvements and scaleup after results of the Phase I trial are knownand have a validated and more efficient manufacturing process in place before the initiation of pivotal trials. We have begun discussion withcontract manufacturers to make new batches of drug product.Interaction with Regulatory Authorities Regarding INB03 and XPro1595 DevelopmentWe plan to perform the Phase I and Phase II trials with INB03 in Australia under the regulatory authority of the TGA using the ClinicalTrials Exemption (“CTX”) scheme. Our first interaction with the regulatory body occurred in March 2018. The Company received approval toinitiate the Phase I trial with INB03 in patients with advanced solid tumors on May 21, 2018. We have not started the regulatory process for thecombination therapy trial of INB03 with a checkpoint inhibitor. We expect combination trials to begin in 2019 once the INB03 monotherapyPhase I trial has completed patient enrollment. We have not started the regulatory process for the combination therapy trial of INB03 with acheckpoint inhibitor. The regulatory process for the development of XPro1595 for the treatment of patients with AD started in the fourth quarterof 2018. The Company received approval to initiate the Phase I trial with XPro1595 in patients with AD on February 8, 2019.INB03 Product Development Path: Proposed Phase I and Phase II Studies in patients with cancerPhase I study: We plan an open label, biomarker directed, dose escalation study in patients with metastatic epithelial cancer andelevated biomarkers of systemic inflammation including MDSC in their blood. We expect these patients to have Stage III or Stage IV cancer.Most, if not all patients will have received and failed or progressed after several lines of therapy that may have included immunotherapy. Aminimum of nine patients will be treated in three dosing cohorts for three months. Patients will receive INB03 by subcutaneous injection once aweek during the duration of the study. We cannot rule out longer treatment of the patients at the discretion of the treating physician. We areprepared to support the patient’s treatment with INB03 until disease progression. The goal of the Phase I trial is to assess safety, determine adose to carry in to the Phase II trial, and verify the utility of our biomarker strategy. Although it is difficult to predict safety and toxicity in Phase1 studies, based on preclinical studies in rodents and nonhuman primates, a doselimiting toxicity has not been identified. Immunosuppressionand demyelination, the primary complications of currently available nonselective TNF inhibitors do not occur with INB03 because it does notinhibit transmembrane TNF, the cause of immunosuppression and demyelination. Secondary endpoints for the Phase I trial will include adecrease of inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in the blood. Although we will follow the stage and degree of tumor burden via imaging studies,we do not expect patients to have a significant survival benefit from this study. The most probable tumor types with be patients with breast,lung, GI cancer and melanoma. The dosing cohorts are expected to be 0.3 mg/kg, 1.0 mg/kg and 3.0mg/kg once a week. The Phase I trial will beperformed at two or three private Phase I units in AUS. We have contracted with the AUS subsidiary of a multinational clinical researchorganization, CTI Inc., of Cincinnati, OH, to manage this study and negotiate these agreements. We started enrolling patients in the August2018. The Phase I trial will be expanded to include combination therapy arms with immunotherapy in preparation for the Phase II study.25Table of ContentsPhase II study: We are planning a combination study of INB03 in combination with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors (“CPI”)for the Phase II trial. Elevated levels of inflammatory biomarkers including MDSC in the blood is a predictor of treatment failure in patients withmelanoma and lung cancer treated with checkpoint inhibitors. It is now recognized the myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment includingMDSC are a barrier to the efficacy of most immunotherapies because of the production of immunosuppressive cytokines that suppress thepatient’s immune response to the tumor. Because the best antitumor response requires participation of both the innate and adaptive immunesystem, we believe combination therapy where INB03 decreases the levels of MDSC and improves NK/DC crosstalk to recruit the adaptiveimmune system in combination with CPI to prevent resistance of the tumor to T cell attack will be an effective treatment of patients who havebeen resistant to CPI because of elevated levels of MDSC. The design of the planned biomarker directed Phase II trial is tentative. At this time,we plan to treat patients with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have failed previous therapy that included a checkpoint inhibitor andhave increased biomarkers of inflammation including increased inflammatory cytokines and elevated levels of MDSC in their blood. The Phase IIwill be an open label randomized trial where patients receive combination therapy with both INB03 and a CPI or receive sequential therapy withINB03 followed by CPI. INB03 will be given once a week by subcutaneous injection. Therapy will occur for at least six months – probablylonger. Based on the mechanism of action of INB03 and the biology of the safety problems associated with CPI use, the safety profile ofcombination therapy with INB03 and CPI is expected to be manageable. The primary endpoint of the Phase II trial will be progression freesurvival as determined validated measures of tumor progression such as imaging studies of tumor size. Immunologic parameters including levelsof inflammatory cytokines and MDSC in blood will also be followed closely. Both the Phase I and II trials will be performed in Australia usingthe Clinical Trial Notification (“CTN”) regulatory process that is administered by the TGA. The exact design of the Phase II developmentprogram may be changed by results obtained in the Phase I trial and/or by a development partner. If resources permit, we may open Phase IIclinical trial sites in the US under the regulatory authority of the FDA.INB03 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using INB03 to improve the lives of patients with cancer andbiomarkers of inflammation and elevated MDSC. We believe that this is not the only cancer indication INB03 can be used for. For example, wehave reported that women with HER2 positive breast cancer who are resistant to trastuzumab due to expression of MUC4 may benefit fromcombination therapy with INB03. We plan to pursue other indications in cancer as resources become available. We have an active partneringposition as it relates to INB03 development in cancer, although no partnering discussion are underway at this time. There are two partneringopportunities with this novel innate immune system checkpoint inhibitor. The first is a traditional partnership focused on the developing thedrug for all oncology applications. The second is a more focused partnership developing INB03 as part of a combination therapy for acompany’s existing therapy, most probably an approved CPI. For example, CTLA4 targeted checkpoint inhibitors do not work well when givento melanoma patients with increased MDSC in their blood. A company with a CPI may want to combine INB03 with their product in a clinicaldevelopment program. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy isavailable to the company with INB03.Our INB03 platform can be used in cancer patients in many ways. It can be used alone or in combination with, but not limited to, othercancer therapies including cytotoxic chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery. We expect INB03 will be used most commonly aspart of combination therapy. We believe that INB03 can also be used to treat many types of hematologic and epithelial cancers. Patients withincreased MDSC can be identified by examining the tumor specimen and/or blood. Patients with increased MDSC in the tumor or blood havemore advanced disease, more resistance to immunotherapy and worse survival.INB03 and XPro1595 Regulatory StrategyINB03 is a new therapy for the treatment of cancer that will need to be proven safe and effective by welldesigned clinical trials thatshow a meaningful clinical benefit to patients. This means that registration trials will need to be randomized trials in patients with cancer. ThePhase I is designed as an open label dose escalation trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. We will not limit the tumor type until weunderstand the best type of patient to treat with. Once we understand these important issues, we plan to seek advice from the competentregulatory authorities and clinical thought leaders to allow the Company to design clinical trials that meet the needs for registration. Aftercompleting the Phase I trial, we will perform a Phase II trial in patients with advanced melanoma or lung cancer who have biomarkers ofinflammation in their blood. The Phase II trial will include patients who have failed first line therapy. The study will be an open label randomizedtrial comparing INB03 in combination with CPI compared to INB03. Both trials will be performed in Australia using the CTN system under theauthority of the Therapeutic Goods Administration (“TGA”). We will meet with the FDA after completion of the Phase I trial. We may to expandthe Phase II trial to the US under the authority of the FDA. Studies will be expanded to Europe and beyond as resources permit. Because thereare no therapies similar to INB03 approved in any market, we plan to take advantage of the regulatory opportunities afforded to therapies thattreat small markets with a high unmet need. In the U.S., this includes Orphan Drug Designation and expedited programs for approval includingAccelerated Approval, Breakthrough Therapy Designation, Fast Track Designation, and priority review (see “Government Regulation”). Wecannot predict which, if any, of these programs we will benefit from without further discussions with the FDA. Similar programs exist in the EUwith the EMA. We will engage the EMA once we have initiated Phase II trials in the United States and Australia.26Table of ContentsImmunotherapy for Treatment of Alzheimer’s DiseaseXPro1595 is being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. XPro1595 is identical to INB03 in every way but name. The nameXPro1595 will be used as the drug name in the Alzheimer’s disease development program. Microglial activation and neuroinflammation areimportant causes of the synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death that causes cognitive decline in patient with dementia and Alzheimer’sdisease. The relationship between β amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles, the traditional targets in AD drug development andneuroinflammation is complex. We believe targeting plaques and tangles is not an effective treatment strategy, but that targetingneuroinflammation, the final common pathway of synaptic dysfunction and nerve cell death is. Substantial direct preclinical data supports theuse of XPro1595 in murine models of AD. Substantial indirect data supports use of XPro1595 in humans including a decreased risk of AD inpatients treated with nonselective TNF inhibitors for rheumatoid arthritis and treatment using direct injection into paraspinous venous plexus.Because of different mechanism of action of XPro1595 compared to the nonselective TNF inhibitors, we expect a lower risk ofimmunosuppression and demyelinating diseases such as MS.We are planning an open label, biomarker directed, Phase I clinical trial in AUS that approaches AD as an immunologic disease. Patients withmildto moderate dementia who have the diagnosis of AD with a hsCRP>2 mg/L. a biomarker of chronic inflammation will be treated withXPro1595 for 12 weeks. Three dosing cohorts are planned 30, 90 and 180 mg per week as a subcutaneous injection. Patients will have 5 groupsof inflammatory biomarkers test before therapy, at 6 weeks and at 12 weeks. Biomarkers will be tested in blood and cerebral spinal fluid, whitematter free water will be determined by MRI and a “breath test” measuring exhaled volatile organ compounds will be used to determine asignature of inflammation in AD patients. Finally, behavioral biomarkers of fatigue, depression aggression, anhedonia and sleep disorders,behaviors that are very sensitive to neuroinflammation, will be cataloged using validated scales to determine if these behaviors improve asneuroinflammation is brought under control. We will be testing traditional measures of AD in blood, CSF and cognition, but we do not expectsignificant changes in a 12 week trial. If AD patients treated with XPro1595 tolerate the therapy well, and show improvement in biomarkers ofneuroinflammation, the company may decide to pursue a larger, longer, fully powered randomized Phase II trial to determine if prolongedtreatment of neuroinflammation results in less cognitive decline in patients treated with XPro1595. Funding for the Phase I trial is provided by acombination of the ParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association and company funding including rebates from the AUS R&D rebatescheme. If the Phase I is successful, additional funds will be needed to support execution of the Phase II trial and to produce additionalXPro1595 to support the clinical programs.XPro1595 Registration Studies and/or PartneringWe plan to aggressively pursue an efficient registration strategy using XPro1595 to improve the lives of patients with AD andbiomarkers of inflammation. We believe AD is not the only indication for XPro1595 in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Weplan to pursue other indications in neurodegenerative diseases as resources become available. We have an active partnering position as itrelates to XPro1595 development in neurodegenerative and neuropshyciatric diseases, although no partnering discussion are underway at thistime. There are two partnering opportunities with this novel immunotherapy for the treatment of neurologic and psychiatric diseases. The first isa traditional partnership focused on the developing the drug for all neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric applications. The second is a morefocused partnership developing XPro1595 as part of a combination therapy for a company’s existing therapy. After completion of proofofconcept Phase II studies, we will decide what the most efficient registration strategy is available to the company with XPro1595. We may tohave biopharma partners participate in this decision making. We may also seek to be acquired at this stage.27Table of ContentsParttheCloud Award The Company was awarded a $1,000,000 grant, to be paid in tranches (the “PTC Award”) from the Alzheimer’s Association inconnection with the Alzheimer’s Association’s Part the Cloud initiative, to advance XPro1595, and received an award letter from the Alzheimer’sAssociation on February 22, 2019 detailing the conditions pertaining to the PTC Award (the “Award Letter”). Pursuant to the Award Letter, thetotal amount of the PTC Award is $1,000,000 and biannual payments will be aligned with the following milestones outlined in the Award Letter:(i) $600,000 on June 15, 2019 upon regulatory approval for opening clinical trial and enrollment of first patient; (ii) if (i) is met, then $250,000 forthe next segment (June 15, 2019 – December 15, 2019) if all patients enrolled in first cohort have reached onemonth milestone and enrollment ofthe first patient in the second cohort and (iii) if (ii) is met, then $150,000 for the next segment (December 15, 2019 – June 15, 2020) if all patientsenrolled in the second cohort have reached the onemonth milestone and enrollment of the first patient in the third cohort.Challenges in the Market for Immunotherapy ProductsGovernment RegulationThe FDA and other federal, state, local and foreign regulatory agencies impose substantial requirements upon the clinical development,approval, labeling, manufacture, marketing and distribution of drug products. These agencies regulate, among other things, research anddevelopment activities and the testing, approval, manufacture, quality control, safety, effectiveness, labeling, storage, record keeping,advertising and promotion of our product candidates. The regulatory approval process is generally lengthy and expensive, with no guarantee ofa positive result. Moreover, failure to comply with applicable FDA or other requirements may result in civil or criminal penalties, recall or seizureof products, injunctive relief including partial or total suspension of production, or withdrawal of a product from the market.Various regulatory authorities regulate, among other things, the research, manufacture, promotion and distribution of drugs in theUnited States under the FDA and other statutes and implementing regulations. The process required by the FDA before prescription drugproduct candidates may be marketed in the United States generally involves the following:·completion of extensive nonclinical laboratory tests, animal studies and formulation studies, all performed in accordance with theFDA’s Good Laboratory Practice regulations;·submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trialsmay begin;·for some products, performance of adequate and wellcontrolled human clinical trials in accordance with the FDA’s regulations,including Good Clinical Practices, to establish the safety and efficacy of the product candidate for each proposed indication;·submission to the FDA of a new drug application or NDA;·satisfactory completion of an FDA preapproval inspection of the manufacturing facilities at which the product is produced to assesscompliance with current Good Manufacturing Practice, or cGMP, regulations; and·FDA review and approval of the NDA prior to any commercial marketing, sale or shipment of the drug.The testing and approval process requires substantial time, effort and financial resources, and we cannot be certain that any approvalsfor our product candidates will be granted on a timely basis, if at all.Preclinical tests include laboratory evaluations of product chemistry, formulation and stability, as well as studies to evaluate toxicity inanimals and other animal studies. The results of preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are submitted aspart of an IND to the FDA. Some preclinical testing may continue even after an IND is submitted. The IND also includes one or more protocolsfor the initial clinical trial or trials and an investigator’s brochure. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA,unless the FDA, within the 30day time period, raises concerns or questions relating to the proposed clinical trials as outlined in the IND andplaces the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such cases, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns or questionsbefore any clinical trials can begin. Clinical trial holds also may be imposed at any time before or during studies due to safety concerns or noncompliance with regulatory requirements. An independent institutional review board, or IRB, at each of the clinical centers proposing toconduct the clinical trial must review and approve the plan for any clinical trial before it commences at that center. An IRB considers, amongother things, whether the risks to individuals participating in the trials are minimized and are reasonable in relation to anticipated benefits. TheIRB also approves the consent form signed by the trial participants and must monitor the study until completed.28Table of ContentsThe FDA offers a number of regulatory mechanisms that provide expedited or accelerated approval procedures for selected drugs in theindications on which we are focusing our efforts. These include accelerated approval under Subpart H of the agency’s NDA approvalregulations, fast track drug development procedures and priority review.We plan to seek orphan drug designation for INKmune for the treatment of ovarian carcinoma. The United States, European Union andother jurisdictions may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a “rare disease or condition,” which, in the United States, isgenerally a disease or condition that affects no more than 200,000 individuals. In the European Union, orphan drug designation can be grantedif: the disease is life threatening or chronically debilitating and affects no more than 50 in 100,000 persons in the European Union; withoutincentive it is unlikely that the drug would generate sufficient return to justify the necessary investment; and no satisfactory method oftreatment for the condition exists or, if it does, the new drug will provide a significant benefit to those affected by the condition. If a product thathas an orphan drug designation subsequently receives the first regulatory approval for the indication for which it has such designation, theproduct is entitled to orphan exclusivity, meaning that the applicable regulatory authority may not approve any other applications to market thesame drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States and 10 years in the EuropeanUnion Orphan drug designation does not prevent competitors from developing or marketing different drugs for the same indication or the samedrug for different indications. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting an NDA. After orphan drug designation isgranted, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are publicly disclosed. Orphan drug designation does not convey anadvantage in, or shorten the duration of, the review and approval process. However, this designation provides an exemption from marketing andauthorization (NDA) fees. We plan to follow a similar path with INB03, although the precise indication cannot be determined until we are fartheralong in the development process.Clinical Trials·Phase 1 clinical trials typically involve the initial introduction of the product candidate into healthy human volunteers. In Phase 1clinical trials, the product candidate is typically tested for safety, dosage tolerance, absorption, metabolism, distribution, excretionand pharmacodynamics.·Phase 2 clinical trials are conducted in a limited patient population to gather evidence about the efficacy of the product candidate forspecific, targeted indications; to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage; and to identify possible adverse effects and safetyrisks.·Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to evaluate clinical efficacy and to test for safety in an expanded patient population atgeographically dispersed clinical trial sites. The size of Phase 3 clinical trials depends upon clinical and statistical considerations forthe product candidate and disease, but sometimes can include several thousand patients. Phase 3 clinical trials are intended toestablish the overall riskbenefit ratio of the product candidate and provide an adequate basis for product labeling.29Table of ContentsClinical trials involve the administration of the product candidate to human subjects under the supervision of qualified medicalinvestigators according to approved protocols that detail the objectives of the study, dosing procedures, subject selection and exclusioncriteria, and the parameters to be used to monitor participant safety. Regulatory procedures differ in each country we will be working in., Forexample, in the US, each protocol is submitted, to the FDA as part of the IND for their review and consent before enrolling patients in the clinicaltrial. The US is not the only place to perform clinical trials. Most countries have systems in place to allow academics and companies to sponsorclinical trials of novel therapies in patients. For financial and technical reasons, the Company will perform the Phase I clinical trials of ourprograms in the United Kingdom and Australia. The US will be included in the Phase II programs. Other venues such as Europe, Canada, Japanand other Pacific Rim countries may be included in the development program in the future. The first clinical trial with INKmune will be initiated inthe United Kingdom. In the United Kingdom, the regulatory submission is made to the MHRA for a clinical trials authorization (“CTA”). This isa multistep process. The Company had a Scientific Advice meeting with the MHRA in September 2017 to discuss the INKmune Phase I/II trial inwomen with relapse/refractory ovarian cancer including trial design, manufacturing processes and clinical trial execution. The MHRA gaverecommendations on trial design, manufacturing controls and the regulatory procedures needed to initiate the clinical trial. We expect to file atCTA for the INKmune trial in ovarian cancer by the third quarter of 2018 and received approval from the MHRA on December 18, 2018. Theapproval allows for the execution of the Phase I/II INKmune clinical trial in the United Kingdom. We plan to have two cancer clinics referring the6 patients needed for the Phase I portion of the trial. The patients will be treated at the Phase I unit a university hospital. We expect all of thePhase I sites to be in London, United Kingdom. If the Phase I trial proceeds as planned, we expect to open the Phase II portion of the trial inearly 2020. The Phase II trial will include at least 3 other clinical sites in the United Kingdom and may include clinical sites in the US. Because 30patients will be required to complete the Phase II portion of the trial, we expect to need sites in both the US and United Kingdom. The additionalclinical sites in the United Kingdom or US have not been identified at this time. No additional regulatory procedures will be needed to add sitesin the United Kingdom. To add sites in the US, we will need to file an IND with the FDA. Once the FDA approves the IND, clinical sites can beopened. We have chosen relapsed/refractory ovarian cancer as the anticipated Phase 1 study for INKmune for a number of reasons. Relapsedrefractory is a disease with poor treatment options. Our preclinical data suggests INKmune may have advantages over other immunotherapiesin the treatment of ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer has a sensitive and validated biomarker to measure disease burden – CA125. This allows theCompany to accurately select patients for the clinical trial and determine if INKmune therapy is effective. We believe that intraperitonealdelivery of INKmune is a lowrisk delivery strategy for a phase 1 study. The patients we plan to enroll in the trial have their diseaseconcentrated in the peritoneal cavity further supporting the use of intraperitoneal delivery. Finally, relapsed refractory ovarian cancer is anOrphan indication in the US. This provides regulatory advantages for registration of INKmune.. INB03 will follow a similar developmentstrategy, but will use Australia for the Phase I programs. In Australia, clinical trials for INB03 are performed under the clinical trials notification(“CTN”) scheme authorized by the Therapeutic Good Administration (“TGA”). The TGA is the equivalent agency to the FDA in the US and theMHRA in the United Kingdom. We filed an Australian Clinical Trial Notification, or CTN, for INB03 during the second quarter of 2018. This wasaccepted in May 2018 to allow us to initiate the Phase I trial. We plan a Phase 1 open label dose escalation trial in patients with advanced solidtumors and biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. We have identified this group of patients as ideal for the INB03 Phase I trial because theywill allow the Company to assess safety of INB03 in a relevant patient group and they provide inflammatory biomarkers that allows us to testdownstream biologic effects of INB03 therapy. The Phase I trial will provide the evidence of safety and a pharmacodynamic drug affect,decrease of inflammatory biomarkers, needed to move the program to a Phase II clinical trial. If successful, the Phase II clinical trial that willcombine INB03 with currently approved checkpoint inhibitor in patients with elevated biomarkers of inflammation in their blood. This is acombination trial where the addition of INB03 to checkpoint inhibitor therapy may improve the efficacy and safety of checkpoint inhibitortherapy alone. Checkpoint inhibitors are immunotherapy drugs that target proteins in the tumor and immune cells to improve the adaptiveimmune response to the tumor by reversing immunologic strategies the cancer uses to evade the immune system. These drugs target PD1, PDL1 or CTLA4. As of April 2018, there are six checkpoint inhibitors approved in the US (Ipilimumab, Atezolizumab, Avelumab, Durvalumab,Pembrolizumab, and Nivolumab). Additional checkpoint inhibitors to new and existing targets are in development and will be approved in thecoming years. Checkpoint inhibitors are having a significant impact on the treatment of cancer and are expected to be the largest selling class ofcancer therapies by 2027. Only 2530% of patients treated with currently approved checkpoint inhibitors respond to therapy and many of thesebecome refractory after a period of treatment. This means at least 70% of patients are resistant to, or refractory to, checkpoint inhibitors. Expertsagree that combination therapy is needed and necessary to improve the response to checkpoint inhibitor therapy in resistant and refractorypatients. To that end, companies with approved checkpoint inhibitors are looking for companion drugs improve patient response and expandmarket opportunities. The INB03 development program in cancer is designed to take advantage of our preclinical data and the needs to thecancer community to improve the safety and efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors. At this time, the combination trial is our lead registration strategyfor INB03 for three reasons. The most common biomarker of checkpoint inhibitor failure is increased MDSC in the patient’s blood. Preclinicaldata suggests, and experts agree, that decreasing MDSC may improve the response rate to checkpoint inhibitors. Because INB03 decreasesnumber and function of MDSC, we believe combination therapy with INB03 and a checkpoint inhibitor will improve patient responses and allowsome refractory or resistant patients to respond to checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Using INB03 in combination with currently approvedcheckpoint inhibitors is a partnering strategy. We call the class of drugs to be combined with checkpoint inhibitors to improve response inresistant/refractory patients checkpoint inhibitor potentiators. We believe INB03 is an ideal checkpoint inhibitor potentiator and have designedour development program to showcase this characteristic. Checkpoint inhibitor companies announced large partnering deal with companiesproducing checkpoint inhibitor potentiators – BMS/Nektar; BMS/IFM and Merck/Incyte. Experts agree that partnering in this arena willcontinue. The registration and development strategy for INB03 is multinational. The Phase II program may enroll patients in other countries,including the United States after submitting an Investigational New Drug application, or IND, to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, orFDA. If partnering is successful at any stage of INB03 development, we expect the partner to influence the development and regulatorydecisions needed with moving the drug to commercialization. Finally, combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors is not the only oncologyapplication for INB03. INB03 can be combined with other immuneoncology therapy to improve efficacy, safety or both. INB03 as monotherapyor as an immunooncology drug paired with tradition therapies such as chemotherapy or radiation are attractive in certain tumor types. Thecompany is pursuing preclinical data in both of these areas. When and if positive developments occur, we will communicate them to ourshareholders. There are other regulatory venues that will be important for both our products – the largest and most important is Europe. InEurope, the European Medicines Agencies (“EMA”) is responsible for authorization of clinical trials in member states. In EU, there may be arequirement to get individual country authorization at the same time as EMA authorization. The development of INB03 will primarily in AUSfollowed by trials in the US. The development of INKmune will occur primarily in the United Kingdom followed by trials in the US. XPro1595 isbeing developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease under a ParttheCloud Award received Feb 2019. The biomarker directed Phase I trialwill be performed in AUS using a regulatory strategy identical to that used for INB03 in cancer. Regulatory approval to initiate the trial wasreceived on February 8, 2019. The clinical trial will be performed at five sites in AUS. XPro1595 treats microglial activation and innate immunedysregulation may be the cause with Alzheimer’s disease in some patients. To our knowledge, there are few companies using an antiinflammatory strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Those companies include Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI); developingDNL747 that targets critical signaling proteins in the TNF pathway that regulate inflammation and cell death. Alector (NASDAQ: ALEC) inpartnership with Abbvie is developing AL002 that targets TREM2 on microglial cells. Gliacure is targeting microglial cells in Alzheimer’s diseasewith a small molecule candidate GC021109.30Table of ContentsClinical testing must satisfy extensive FDA regulations. Reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at leastannually to the FDA and safety reports must be submitted for serious and unexpected adverse events. Success in early stage clinical trials doesnot assure success in later stage clinical trials. The FDA, an IRB or we may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including afinding that the research subjects or patients are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.New Drug ApplicationsAssuming successful completion of the required clinical trials, the results of product development, preclinical studies and clinical trialsare submitted to the FDA as part of an NDA. An NDA also must contain extensive manufacturing information, as well as proposed labeling forthe finished product. An NDA applicant must develop information about the chemistry and physical characteristics of the drug and finalize aprocess for manufacturing the product in accordance with cGMP. The manufacturing process must be capable of consistently producing qualityproduct within specifications approved by the FDA. The manufacturer must develop methods for testing the quality, purity and potency of thefinal product. In addition, appropriate packaging must be selected and tested and stability studies must be conducted to demonstrate that theproduct does not undergo unacceptable deterioration over its shelf life. Prior to approval, the FDA will conduct an inspection of themanufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP.The FDA reviews all NDAs submitted before it accepts them for filing. The FDA may request additional information rather than acceptan NDA for filing. In this event, the NDA must be resubmitted with the additional information and is subject to review before the FDA accepts itfor filing. After an application is filed, the FDA may refer the NDA to an advisory committee for review, evaluation and recommendation as towhether the application should be approved and under what conditions. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisorycommittee, but it considers them carefully when making decisions. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA if the applicable regulatory criteriaare not satisfied. Data obtained from clinical trials are not always conclusive and the FDA may interpret data differently than we interpret thesame data. The FDA may issue a complete response letter, which may require additional clinical or other data or impose other conditions thatmust be met in order to secure final approval of the NDA. If a product receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited tospecific diseases and dosages or the indications for use may otherwise be limited, which could restrict the commercial value of the product. Inaddition, the FDA may require us to conduct Phase 4 testing which involves clinical trials designed to further assess a drug’s safety andeffectiveness after NDA approval, and may require surveillance programs to monitor the safety of approved products which have beencommercialized. Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory requirements are not met or if safety or efficacyquestions are raised after the product reaches the market.31Table of ContentsPostApproval RequirementsAny products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals are subject to pervasive and continuing regulation by theFDA, including, among other things, requirements relating to recordkeeping, reporting of adverse experiences, periodic reporting, distribution,and advertising and promotion of the product. After approval, most changes to the approved product, such as adding new indications or otherlabeling claims, are subject to prior FDA review and approval. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements for any marketedproducts and the establishments at which such products are manufactured, as well as new application fees for supplemental applications withclinical data. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain stateagencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with GMP, which imposecertain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our thirdparty manufacturers. Changes to the manufacturing process arestrictly regulated, and, depending on the significance of the change, may require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDAregulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting requirements upon us and any thirdparty manufacturers that we may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the area ofproduction and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP and other aspects of regulatory compliance. If our future suppliers are notable to comply with these requirements, the FDA may, among other things, halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a product from distribution,or withdraw approval of the product.The FDA may withdraw approval if compliance with regulatory requirements and standards is not maintained or if problems occur afterthe product reaches the market. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product, including adverse events of unanticipatedseverity or frequency, or with manufacturing processes, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements, may result in revisions to theapproved labeling to add new safety information; imposition of postmarket studies or clinical studies to assess new safety risks; or impositionof distribution restrictions or other restrictions under a REMS program.The FDA closely regulates the marketing, labeling, advertising and promotion of pharmaceutical products. A company can make onlythose claims relating to safety and efficacy, purity and potency that are approved by the FDA and in accordance with the provisions of theapproved label. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion of offlabel uses. Failure tocomply with these requirements can result in, among other things, adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising and potential civiland criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available products for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and thatdiffer from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such offlabel uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believethat such offlabel uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physiciansin their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturer’s communications on the subject of offlabel use of their products.Other Healthcare Laws and Compliance RequirementsOur sales, promotion, medical education, clinical research and other activities following product approval will be subject to regulationby numerous regulatory and law enforcement authorities in the United States in addition to FDA, including potentially the Federal TradeCommission, the Department of Justice, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, other divisions of the U.S. Department ofHealth and Human Services and state and local governments. Our promotional and scientific/educational programs must comply with the federalAntiKickback Statute, the civil False Claims Act, physician payment transparency laws, privacy laws, security laws, and additional federal andstate laws similar to the foregoing.32Table of ContentsThe federal AntiKickback Statute prohibits, among other things, the knowing and willing, direct or indirect offer, receipt, solicitation orpayment of remuneration in exchange for or to induce the referral of patients, including the purchase, order or lease of any good, facility, item orservice that would be paid for in whole or part by Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. Remuneration has been broadlydefined to include anything of value, including cash, improper discounts, and free or reduced price items and services. The federal AntiKickback Statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between pharmaceutical manufacturers on one hand and prescribers,purchasers, formulary managers, and beneficiaries on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safeharbors protecting some common activities from prosecution, the exceptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly. Practices that involveremuneration that may be alleged to be intended to induce prescribing, purchases or recommendations may be subject to scrutiny if they do notqualify for an exception or safe harbor. Failure to meet all of the requirements of a particular applicable statutory exception or regulatory safeharbor does not make the conduct per se illegal under the federal AntiKickback Statute. Instead, the legality of the arrangement will beevaluated on a casebycase basis based on a cumulative review of all its facts and circumstances. Several courts have interpreted the statute’sintent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of federal healthcare coveredbusiness, the federal AntiKickback Statute has been violated. The government has enforced the federal AntiKickback Statute to reach largesettlements with healthcare companies based on sham research or consulting and other financial arrangements with physicians. Further, aperson or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation. In addition,the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal AntiKickback Statute constitutes afalse or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act. Many states have similar laws that apply to their state health care programs aswell as private payors.Federal false claims and false statement laws, including the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA, imposes liability on persons orentities that, among other things, knowingly present or cause to be presented claims that are false or fraudulent or not provided as claimed forpayment or approval by a federal health care program. The FCA has been used to prosecute persons or entities that “cause” the submission ofclaims for payment that are inaccurate or fraudulent, by, for example, providing inaccurate billing or coding information to customers, promotinga product offlabel, submitting claims for services not provided as claimed, or submitting claims for services that were provided but notmedically necessary. Actions under the FCA may be brought by the Attorney General or as a qui tam action by a private individual in the nameof the government. Violations of the FCA can result in significant monetary penalties and treble damages. The federal government is using theFCA, and the accompanying threat of significant liability, in its investigation and prosecution of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companiesthroughout the country, for example, in connection with the promotion of products for unapproved uses and other illegal sales and marketingpractices. The government has obtained multimillion and multibillion dollar settlements under the FCA in addition to individual criminalconvictions under applicable criminal statutes. In addition, certain companies that were found to be in violation of the FCA have been forced toimplement extensive corrective action plans, and have often become subject to consent decrees or corporate integrity agreements, restrictingthe manner in which they conduct their business.The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, created additional federal criminal statutes thatprohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program,including private thirdparty payors; knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false,fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services; and willfullyobstructing a criminal investigation of a healthcare offense. Like the federal AntiKickback Statute, the Affordable Care Act amended the intentstandard for certain healthcare fraud statutes under HIPAA such that a person or entity no longer needs to have actual knowledge of thestatute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.Given the significant size of actual and potential settlements, we expect that the government will continue to devote substantialresources to investigating healthcare providers’ and manufacturers’ compliance with applicable fraud and abuse laws. Also, many states havesimilar fraud and abuse statutes or regulations that may be broader in scope and may apply regardless of payor, in addition to items andservices reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs. Additionally, to the extent that our products, once commercialized, are sold in aforeign country, we may be subject to similar foreign laws.33Table of ContentsIn addition, there has been a recent trend of increased federal and state regulation of payments made to physicians and otherhealthcare providers. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, orcollectively, the Affordable Care Act, among other things, imposed new reporting requirements on certain manufacturers of drugs, devices,biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, withspecific exceptions, for payments or other transfers of value made by them to physicians and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership andinvestment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Covered manufacturers are required to collect and report detailedpayment data and submit legal attestation to the accuracy of such data to the government each year. Failure to submit required information mayresult in civil monetary penalties of up to an aggregate of $150,000 per year (or up to an aggregate of $1 million per year for “knowing failures”),for all payments, transfers of value or ownership or investment interests that are not timely, accurately and completely reported in an annualsubmission. Additionally, entities that do not comply with mandatory reporting requirements may be subject to a corporate integrity agreement.Certain states also mandate implementation of commercial compliance programs, impose restrictions on covered manufacturers’ marketingpractices and/or require the tracking and reporting of gifts, compensation and other remuneration to physicians and other healthcareprofessionals.We may also be subject to data privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states in which we conduct ourbusiness. HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementingregulations, imposes specified requirements on certain health care providers, plans and clearinghouses (collectively, “covered entities”) andtheir “business associates,” relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. Among otherthings, HITECH makes HIPAA’s security standards directly applicable to “business associates,” defined as independent contractors or agentsof covered entities that create, receive, maintain or transmit protected health information in connection with providing a service for or on behalfof a covered entity. HITECH also increased the civil and criminal penalties that may be imposed against covered entities, business associatesand possibly other persons, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts toenforce HIPAA and seek attorney’s fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions. In addition, certain states have their own lawsthat govern the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other and/or HIPAA insignificant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts.Coverage and ReimbursementSales of pharmaceutical products depend significantly on the extent to which coverage and adequate reimbursement are provided bythirdparty payors. Thirdparty payors include state and federal government health care programs, managed care providers, private healthinsurers and other organizations. Although we currently believe that thirdparty payors will provide coverage and reimbursement for ourproduct candidates, if approved, we cannot be certain of this. Thirdparty payors are increasingly challenging the price, examining the costeffectiveness, and reducing reimbursement for medical products and services. In addition, significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursementstatus of newly approved healthcare products. The U.S. government, state legislatures and foreign governments have continued implementingcost containment programs, including price controls, restrictions on coverage and reimbursement and requirements for substitution of genericproducts. Adoption of price controls and cost containment measures, and adoption of more restrictive policies in jurisdictions with existingcontrols and measures, could further limit our net revenue and results. We may need to conduct expensive clinical studies to demonstrate thecomparative costeffectiveness of our products. The product candidates that we develop may not be considered costeffective and thus maynot be covered or sufficiently reimbursed. It is time consuming and expensive for us to seek coverage and reimbursement from thirdpartypayors, as each payor will make its own determination as to whether to cover a product and at what level of reimbursement. Thus, one payor’sdecision to provide coverage and adequate reimbursement for a product does not assure that another payor will provide coverage or that thereimbursement levels will be adequate. Moreover, a payor’s decision to provide coverage for a drug product does not imply that an adequatereimbursement rate will be approved. Reimbursement may not be available or sufficient to allow us to sell our products on a competitive andprofitable basis.34Table of ContentsHealthcare ReformThe United States and some foreign jurisdictions are considering or have enacted a number of legislative and regulatory proposals tochange the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell our products profitably. Among policy makers and payors in theUnited States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with the stated goals of containinghealthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access. In the United States, the pharmaceutical industry has been a particular focus ofthese efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives.By way of example, in March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law, intended to broaden access to health insurance,reduce or constrain the growth of healthcare spending, enhance remedies against fraud and abuse, add new transparency requirements for thehealthcare and health insurance industries, impose new taxes and fees on the health industry and impose additional health policy reforms.Among the provisions of the Affordable Care Act of importance to our potential drug candidates are:·an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents,apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;·an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program to 23.1% and 13.0%of the average manufacturer price for branded and generic drugs, respectively;·a new methodology by which rebates owed by manufacturers under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program are calculated for drugs thatare inhaled, infused, instilled, implanted or injected;·a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% pointofsale discounts offnegotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for amanufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;·extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaidmanaged care organizations;·expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage toadditional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of thefederal poverty level, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;·expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program; and·a new PatientCentered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectivenessresearch, along with funding for such research.In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the Affordable Care Act was enacted. These changesinclude, among others, the Budget Control Act of 2011, which mandates aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2%per fiscal year effective April 1, 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect through 2024 unless additionalCongressional action is taken. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among otherthings, further reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, increased the statute oflimitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additionalreductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on customers for our product candidates, ifapproved, and, accordingly, our financial operations.35Table of ContentsWe expect that the Affordable Care Act, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result inmore rigorous coverage criteria and lower reimbursement, and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approvedproduct. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other governmentfunded programs may result in a similar reduction in paymentsfrom private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generaterevenue, attain profitability or commercialize our drugs.EmployeesAs of March 25, 2019, we have [three] fulltime employees, consisting of our executive officers, and retain the services of additionalpersonnel on an independent contractor basis. We do not have any parttime employees but work with several consultants.Item 1a. Risk FactorsYou should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including informationin the section of this document entitled “Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements.” If any of the following risks actually occur,the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of the Company’sCommon Stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESSWe have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues to date.To date, we have no approved products on the market and have generated no product revenues. Until, and unless, we receive approvalfrom the FDA and other regulatory authorities for our product candidates, we cannot sell our products and will not have product revenues.Therefore, for the foreseeable future, we will have to fund all of our operations and capital expenditures from the net proceeds of the offering,cash on hand, licensing fees and grants and additional financings, to the extent such financings can be obtained.We will need additional capital. If additional capital is not available or is available at unattractive terms, we may be forced to delay,reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts or curtail our operations.In order to develop and bring our product candidates to market, we must commit substantial resources to costly and timeconsumingresearch, preclinical and clinical trials and marketing activities. We anticipate that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us tomaintain our current operations for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate using our cash and cash equivalents to fund further researchand development with respect to our lead product candidates. We may, however, need to raise additional funding sooner if our business oroperations change in a manner that consumes available resources more rapidly than we anticipate. Our requirements for additional capital willdepend on many factors, including:·successful commercialization of our product candidates;·the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates;·costs associated with protecting our intellectual property rights;·development of marketing and sales capabilities;·payments received under future collaborative agreements, if any; and·market acceptance of our products, if any.36Table of ContentsTo the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of those securities could result in dilution toour shareholders. In addition, if we obtain debt financing, a substantial portion of our operating cash flow may be dedicated to the payment ofprincipal and interest on such indebtedness, thus limiting funds available for our business activities. If adequate funds are not available, wemay be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate our research and development programs, reduce our commercialization efforts orcurtail our operations. In addition, we may be required to obtain funds through arrangements with collaborative partners or others that mayrequire us to relinquish rights to technologies, product candidates or products that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercializeourselves or license rights to technologies, product candidates or products on terms that are less favorable to us than might otherwise beavailable.The Company will require substantial additional funds to support its research and development activities, and the anticipated costs ofpreclinical studies and clinical trials, regulatory approvals and eventual commercialization. Such additional sources of financing may not beavailable on favorable terms, if at all. If we do not succeed in raising additional funds on acceptable terms, we may be unable to initiate clinicaltrials or obtain approval of any product candidates from the FDA and other regulatory authorities. In addition, we could be forced todiscontinue product development, forego sales and marketing efforts and forego attractive business opportunities. Any additional sources offinancing will likely involve the issuance of our equity securities, which will have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s product candidates which included the general andadministrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time asthe Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concernfrom the issuance date of these financial statements. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible futureeffect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of theseuncertainties. Management intends to pursue additional funding and implement its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company tocontinue as a going concern, however, there cannot be any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising the additional funds needed to fund our business plan. If we are not able toraise sufficient capital in the near future, our continued operations will be in jeopardy and we may be forced to cease operations and sell orotherwise transfer all or substantially all of our remaining assets.We face intense competition in the markets targeted by our lead product candidates. Many of our competitors have substantially greaterresources than we do, and we expect that all of our product candidates under development will face intense competition from existing orfuture drugs.We expect that all of our product candidates under development, if approved, will face intense competition from existing and futuredrugs marketed by large companies. These competitors may successfully market products that compete with our products, successfully identifydrug candidates or develop products earlier than we do, or develop products that are more effective, have fewer side effects or cost less thanour products, if any.Additionally, if a competitor receives FDA approval before we do for a drug that is similar to one of our product candidates, FDAapproval for our product candidate may be precluded or delayed due to periods of nonpatent exclusivity and/or the listing with the FDA by thecompetitor of patents covering its newlyapproved drug product. Periods of nonpatent exclusivity for new versions of existing drugs such asour current product candidates can extend up to three and onehalf years. See “Business — Government Regulation.”These competitive factors could require us to conduct substantial new research and development activities to establish new producttargets, which would be costly and time consuming. These activities would adversely affect our ability to commercialize products and achieverevenue and profits.37Table of ContentsCompetition and technological change may make our product candidates and technologies less attractive or obsolete.We compete with established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that are pursuing other forms of treatment for the sameindications we are pursuing and that have greater financial and other resources. Other companies may succeed in developing products earlierthan us, obtaining FDA approval for products more rapidly, or developing products that are more effective than our product candidates.Research and development by others may render our technology or product candidates obsolete or noncompetitive, or result in treatments orcures superior to any therapy we develop. We face competition from companies that internally develop competing technology or acquirecompeting technology from universities and other research institutions. As these companies develop their technologies, they may developcompetitive positions that may prevent, make futile, or limit our product commercialization efforts, which would result in a decrease in therevenue we would be able to derive from the sale of any products.There can be no assurance that any of our product candidates will be accepted by the marketplace as readily as these or othercompeting treatments. Furthermore, if our competitors’ products are approved before ours, it could be more difficult for us to obtain approvalfrom the FDA. Even if our products are successfully developed and approved for use by all governing regulatory bodies, there can be noassurance that physicians and patients will accept our product(s) as a treatment of choice.Furthermore, the pharmaceutical research industry is diverse, complex, and rapidly changing. By its nature, the business risksassociated therewith are numerous and significant. The effects of competition, intellectual property disputes, market acceptance, and FDAregulations preclude us from forecasting revenues or income with certainty or even confidence.The clinical and commercial utility of our INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.Our INKmune therapy is in an early stage of development. We received approval by the MHRA to start Phase a Phase I/II trial onDecember 18, 2018. Success in early clinical trials, if achieved, does not ensure that largescale trials will be successful, nor does it predict finalresults.We may not ultimately be able to provide the FDA with satisfactory data to support a claim of clinical safety and efficacy sufficient toenable the FDA to approve INKmune for commercialization. This may be because clinical trials may fail to produce favorable data, because theFDA may disagree with how we interpret the data from these clinical trials, or because the FDA may not accept these therapeutic effects as validendpoints in pivotal trials necessary for market approval. We will also need to demonstrate that INKmune therapy is safe. We do not have dataon possible harmful longterm effects of INKmune therapy and will not have any data on longterm effects in the near future. For these andother reasons, the clinical effectiveness and commercialization of INKmune therapy is uncertain and may never be realized.If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our ability to pursue the development of our technologies and products would benegatively affected.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents and maintain adequate protection of our technologies and products. Ifwe do not adequately protect our intellectual property, competitors may be able to use our technologies to produce and market drugs in directcompetition with us and erode our competitive advantage. Some foreign countries lack rules and methods for defending intellectual propertyrights and do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States. Many companies have had difficulty protecting theirproprietary rights in these foreign countries. We may not be able to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary rights.38Table of ContentsWe have received, and are currently seeking, patent protection for numerous compounds and methods of treating diseases. However,the patent process is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in protecting ourproducts by obtaining and defending patents. These risks and uncertainties include the following: patents that may be issued or licensed maybe challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or otherwise may not provide any competitive advantage; our competitors, many of which havesubstantially greater resources than us and many of which have made significant investments in competing technologies, may seek, or mayalready have obtained, patents that will limit, interfere with, or eliminate our ability to make, use, and sell our potential products either in theUnited States or in international markets; there may be significant pressure on the United States government and other internationalgovernmental bodies to limit the scope of patent protection both inside and outside the United States for treatments that prove successful as amatter of public policy regarding worldwide health concerns; countries other than the United States may have less restrictive patent laws thanthose upheld by United States courts, allowing foreign competitors the ability to exploit these laws to create, develop, and market competingproducts.Moreover, any patents issued to us may not provide us with meaningful protection, or others may challenge, circumvent or narrow ourpatents. Third parties may also independently develop products similar to our products, duplicate our unpatented products or design aroundany patents on products we develop. Additionally, extensive time is required for development, testing and regulatory review of a potentialproduct. While extensions of patent term due to regulatory delays may be available, it is possible that, before any of our product candidates canbe commercialized, any related patent, even with an extension, may expire or remain in force for only a short period following commercialization,thereby reducing any advantages of the patent.In addition, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) and patent offices in other jurisdictions have often requiredthat patent applications concerning pharmaceutical and/or biotechnologyrelated inventions be limited or narrowed substantially to cover onlythe specific innovations exemplified in the patent application, thereby limiting the scope of protection against competitive challenges. Thus,even if we or our licensors are able to obtain patents, the patents may be substantially narrower than anticipated.Our success depends on patent applications that are licensed exclusively to us and other patents to which we may obtain assignmentor licenses. We may not be aware, however, of all patents, published applications or published literature that may affect our business either byblocking our ability to commercialize our product candidates, by preventing the patentability of our product candidates to us or our licensors, orby covering the same or similar technologies that may invalidate our patents, limit the scope of our future patent claims or adversely affect ourability to market our product candidates.In addition to patents, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, confidentiality, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, andsecurity measures to protect our confidential and proprietary information. These measures may not adequately protect our trade secrets or otherproprietary information. If they do not adequately protect our rights, third parties could use our technology, and we could lose any competitiveadvantage we may have. In addition, others may independently develop similar proprietary information or techniques or otherwise gain accessto our trade secrets, which could impair any competitive advantage we may have.Patent protection and other intellectual property protection is crucial to the success of our business and prospects, and there is asubstantial risk that such protections will prove inadequate.We license our patents from third party owners. If such owners do not properly maintain or enforce the intellectual property underlyingsuch licenses, our competitive position and business prospects could be harmed. Our licensors may also seek to terminate our license.We are a party to a number of licenses that give us rights to thirdparty intellectual property that is necessary or useful to our business.To this end, we are dependent on our licenses with Xencor, Inc., Immune Ventures, LLC and the University of Pittsburgh. Our success willdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures.

The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019.

The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OFEQUITY SECURITIESCommon StockOur common stock began trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol “INMB” on February 4, 2019. Prior to that, there was no publicmarket for our common stock. As a result, we have not set forth quarterly information with respect to the high and low prices for our commonstock for the two most recent fiscal years or provided a performance graph.As of March 25, 2019, there were 9,740,261 shares of our common stock outstanding held by approximately 63 holders of record.Sales of Unregistered SecuritiesOn May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company recorded $4,626,000of stockbased compensation expense during the year ended December 31, 2018 for the 600,000 shares of common stock to be issued.During the year ended December 31, 2018, to complete a series of funding provided for in the Company’s joint development agreementdated September 3, 2016, the Company received $900,000 in cash from Luminus in exchange for 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.Luminus is owned by a significant shareholder of the Company.In connection with the foregoing, we relied upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of1933, as amended, for transactions not involving a public offering.Purchases of Equity Securities by the IssuerThere were no repurchases of our common stock during the year ended December 31, 2018.58Table of ContentsEquity Compensation Plan InformationAs of December 31, 2018, all compensation based on our equity was awarded under the INmune Bio, Inc. 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the“2017 Plan”).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, Immune Ventures assigned all of its rights, obligations and liabilities under the Exclusive LicenseAgreement between the University of Pittsburgh – Of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education and Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, the Company agreed to convert the amount Immune Ventures paid of $162,634 into shares of theCompany’s common stock valued at $7.71 per share, based on the per share value of the shares issued to Xencor, for 21,094 shares for thereimbursement of amounts paid by the Assignor to the University of Pittsburgh, which the Company recorded as stockbased compensationwithin research and development expense. These shares were issued on December 31, 2017.During 2017, the Company issued fully vested warrants to purchase 31,667 shares of the Company’s common stock to a third party inconjunction with the common stock sold for cash, with an exercise price of $1.50 per share, maturity date of June 30, 2022, and fair value of$36,922 using the BlackScholes optionpricing model, which were recorded as stockbased compensation.During March 2018, the CEO and CFO were each granted an option to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a$7.80 exercise price. Onethird of the options vested on January 1, 2018 and the remainder shall vest on a monthly basis over a 24 month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $5,115,693 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.During March 2018, a board member was granted 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a $7.80 exercise price. Theseoptions vest over a 24month term. The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,557,847 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricingmodel.During April 2018, the Company granted options to purchase 108,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to each of four Boardmembers, of which 3,000 options shall vest monthly. The options have a 10year term and a $7.80 exercise price and vest over a 36month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,743,894 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.On May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. The Company recorded stockbased compensation based onthe Company’s estimate of the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of the issuance date, which the Company estimated using the thirdparty valuation it obtained in connection with the acquisition of the Xencor license which valued the Company’s common stock at $7.71 pershare.OffBalance Sheet ArrangementsDuring the periods presented, we did not have any offbalance sheet arrangements as defined under SEC rules.Licensing and Collaboration AgreementsWe anticipate that inlicensing, outlicensing and strategic collaborations will become an integral part of our operations, providing thecompany with opportunities to leverage our partners’ expertise and capabilities to further expand the potential of our technologies, productcandidates and revenue streams.66Table of ContentsXencorIn October 2017, we licensed INB03, also known as XPro1595, from Xencor. This exclusive, global, unrestricted license came withconsiderable knowhow, intellectual property, preclinical data, regulatory documentation and product stocks. Currently, we are focused on theimmuneoncology uses of this unique asset. In the future, we may develop the asset in a wide variety of therapeutic areas, with a variety ofdelivery techniques by ourselves or in conjunction with partners.Unit OfferingIn June 2017, the Company completed a private placement in which we sold 1,393,335 of units to accredited investors at a per unit priceof $10,000 with each unit consisting of 6,667 shares of our common stock, and received net proceeds of approximately $2,056,000, net ofissuance costs of $34,000. Pursuant to the subscription agreement between the Company and the investors of the offering, for a period of twoyears from June 30, 2017, if the Company sells shares of common stock or the right to receive common stock at a price per share which valuesthe Company at less than $10,000,000, the Company will issue additional shares of common stock to each investor in the offering such that theinvestor will receive the same effective price per share as the investors in any such future offering, however the Company has not sold itscommon stock at a valuation of less than $10,000,000 since the inception of this agreement. Pursuant to the subscription agreement, theCompany agreed to file a registration statement to register the shares of common stock sold in the offering within five months after the finalclosing and seek to have the registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within six months of the filingor else incur penalties, however the Company was unable to meet this timeline. The Company received waivers from all shareholders except forone pursuant to the registration rights. We expect to pay the one investor who did not waive its registration rights approximately $1,500 inpenalties. The offer and sale of the units were made in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded under Section 4(a)(2) of theSecurities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. The unit offering was not conducted in connection with a public offering,and no public solicitation or advertisement was made or relied upon by the investors in connection with the unit offering.In connection with the offering we paid a registered broker dealer a commission of $47,500, and we issued warrants to purchase 31,667shares of our common stock with a strike price of $1.50 per share for 5 years from June 30, 2017, with a fair value of $36,922.Initial Public OfferingThe Company entered into subscription agreements for the initial public offing (“IPO”) and sold, on a best efforts basis, 1,020,820shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a per share purchase price of $8.00 per share (including subscription agreements withinsiders of the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $416,000). In connection with the IPO, the Company received gross proceeds of$8,166,560 before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. Univest Securities, LLC (“Univest”) served as the lead placementagent for the IPO and WallachBeth Capital, LLC and WestPark Capital, Inc. were coplacement agents (Univest, Wallach Beth Capital, LLC andWestPark Capital, Inc. are collectively referred to as the Placement Agents”). In connection with the IPO, the Company paid the PlacementAgents $571,659 in commissions and reimbursed Univest for its outofpocket expenses.The Company also agreed to pay Univest an advisory fee of $30,000 upon the closing of the IPO. The fees and expenses paid to thePlacement Agents were paid pursuant to the certain Placement Agent Agreement (the “Placement Agent Agreement”) between the Companyand Univest dated November 16, 2018.A registration statement relating to the IPO was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and was declared effectiveby the SEC as of December 19, 2018.The Company also issued the Placement Agents warrants to purchase 40,833 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exerciseprice of $9.60 per share, which warrants are exercisable from time to time, in whole or in part, during the fiveyear period commencing six monthsfrom the effective date Effectiveness Date. If there is no effective registration statement registering the shares of common stock that thewarrants may be exercisable into, then the warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis.67Table of ContentsOn February 4, 2019, the Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “INMB”.Results of OperationsComparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017Year EndedDecember 31,2018December 31,2017ChangeChange$$$%General and Administrative$11,334,634$546,118$10,788,9481,975%Research and Development1,105,389435,362680,027160%Other Income(149,994)(149,994)(100)%Net loss$(12,440,023)$(831,486)$11,618,537General and AdministrativeOperating expenses were $11,334,634 for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $546,118 for the year ended December 31,2017. The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019. We anticipate our cash andcash equivalents (including the proceeds from our February 2019 IPO will last through December 31, 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.At December 31, 2018, we had a cash balance of $186,204, and $1,370,711 as of December 31, 2017. The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017. The decrease in our working capital was mainly due to the usage of cash inconnection with our clinical trials, and due to the usage of cash in connection with legal, accounting and consulting efforts in anticipation ofbecoming a public company.Cash FlowsThe following table provides information regarding our cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:Year EndedDecember 31,20182017Net cash used in operating activities$(2,058,994)$(761,834)Net cash used in investing activities(100,000)Net cash provided by financing activities900,0002,056,000Impact on cash from foreign currency translation(25,513)34,886Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents$(1,184,507)$1,229,052Net Cash Used in Operating ActivitiesThe Company used cash of $2,058,994 and $761,834 in operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017,respectively.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures.

The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019.

The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OFEQUITY SECURITIESCommon StockOur common stock began trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol “INMB” on February 4, 2019. Prior to that, there was no publicmarket for our common stock. As a result, we have not set forth quarterly information with respect to the high and low prices for our commonstock for the two most recent fiscal years or provided a performance graph.As of March 25, 2019, there were 9,740,261 shares of our common stock outstanding held by approximately 63 holders of record.Sales of Unregistered SecuritiesOn May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company recorded $4,626,000of stockbased compensation expense during the year ended December 31, 2018 for the 600,000 shares of common stock to be issued.During the year ended December 31, 2018, to complete a series of funding provided for in the Company’s joint development agreementdated September 3, 2016, the Company received $900,000 in cash from Luminus in exchange for 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.Luminus is owned by a significant shareholder of the Company.In connection with the foregoing, we relied upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of1933, as amended, for transactions not involving a public offering.Purchases of Equity Securities by the IssuerThere were no repurchases of our common stock during the year ended December 31, 2018.58Table of ContentsEquity Compensation Plan InformationAs of December 31, 2018, all compensation based on our equity was awarded under the INmune Bio, Inc. 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the“2017 Plan”).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, Immune Ventures assigned all of its rights, obligations and liabilities under the Exclusive LicenseAgreement between the University of Pittsburgh – Of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education and Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, the Company agreed to convert the amount Immune Ventures paid of $162,634 into shares of theCompany’s common stock valued at $7.71 per share, based on the per share value of the shares issued to Xencor, for 21,094 shares for thereimbursement of amounts paid by the Assignor to the University of Pittsburgh, which the Company recorded as stockbased compensationwithin research and development expense. These shares were issued on December 31, 2017.During 2017, the Company issued fully vested warrants to purchase 31,667 shares of the Company’s common stock to a third party inconjunction with the common stock sold for cash, with an exercise price of $1.50 per share, maturity date of June 30, 2022, and fair value of$36,922 using the BlackScholes optionpricing model, which were recorded as stockbased compensation.During March 2018, the CEO and CFO were each granted an option to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a$7.80 exercise price. Onethird of the options vested on January 1, 2018 and the remainder shall vest on a monthly basis over a 24 month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $5,115,693 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.During March 2018, a board member was granted 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a $7.80 exercise price. Theseoptions vest over a 24month term. The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,557,847 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricingmodel.During April 2018, the Company granted options to purchase 108,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to each of four Boardmembers, of which 3,000 options shall vest monthly. The options have a 10year term and a $7.80 exercise price and vest over a 36month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,743,894 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.On May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. The Company recorded stockbased compensation based onthe Company’s estimate of the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of the issuance date, which the Company estimated using the thirdparty valuation it obtained in connection with the acquisition of the Xencor license which valued the Company’s common stock at $7.71 pershare.OffBalance Sheet ArrangementsDuring the periods presented, we did not have any offbalance sheet arrangements as defined under SEC rules.Licensing and Collaboration AgreementsWe anticipate that inlicensing, outlicensing and strategic collaborations will become an integral part of our operations, providing thecompany with opportunities to leverage our partners’ expertise and capabilities to further expand the potential of our technologies, productcandidates and revenue streams.66Table of ContentsXencorIn October 2017, we licensed INB03, also known as XPro1595, from Xencor. This exclusive, global, unrestricted license came withconsiderable knowhow, intellectual property, preclinical data, regulatory documentation and product stocks. Currently, we are focused on theimmuneoncology uses of this unique asset. In the future, we may develop the asset in a wide variety of therapeutic areas, with a variety ofdelivery techniques by ourselves or in conjunction with partners.Unit OfferingIn June 2017, the Company completed a private placement in which we sold 1,393,335 of units to accredited investors at a per unit priceof $10,000 with each unit consisting of 6,667 shares of our common stock, and received net proceeds of approximately $2,056,000, net ofissuance costs of $34,000. Pursuant to the subscription agreement between the Company and the investors of the offering, for a period of twoyears from June 30, 2017, if the Company sells shares of common stock or the right to receive common stock at a price per share which valuesthe Company at less than $10,000,000, the Company will issue additional shares of common stock to each investor in the offering such that theinvestor will receive the same effective price per share as the investors in any such future offering, however the Company has not sold itscommon stock at a valuation of less than $10,000,000 since the inception of this agreement. Pursuant to the subscription agreement, theCompany agreed to file a registration statement to register the shares of common stock sold in the offering within five months after the finalclosing and seek to have the registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within six months of the filingor else incur penalties, however the Company was unable to meet this timeline. The Company received waivers from all shareholders except forone pursuant to the registration rights. We expect to pay the one investor who did not waive its registration rights approximately $1,500 inpenalties. The offer and sale of the units were made in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded under Section 4(a)(2) of theSecurities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. The unit offering was not conducted in connection with a public offering,and no public solicitation or advertisement was made or relied upon by the investors in connection with the unit offering.In connection with the offering we paid a registered broker dealer a commission of $47,500, and we issued warrants to purchase 31,667shares of our common stock with a strike price of $1.50 per share for 5 years from June 30, 2017, with a fair value of $36,922.Initial Public OfferingThe Company entered into subscription agreements for the initial public offing (“IPO”) and sold, on a best efforts basis, 1,020,820shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a per share purchase price of $8.00 per share (including subscription agreements withinsiders of the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $416,000). In connection with the IPO, the Company received gross proceeds of$8,166,560 before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. Univest Securities, LLC (“Univest”) served as the lead placementagent for the IPO and WallachBeth Capital, LLC and WestPark Capital, Inc. were coplacement agents (Univest, Wallach Beth Capital, LLC andWestPark Capital, Inc. are collectively referred to as the Placement Agents”). In connection with the IPO, the Company paid the PlacementAgents $571,659 in commissions and reimbursed Univest for its outofpocket expenses.The Company also agreed to pay Univest an advisory fee of $30,000 upon the closing of the IPO. The fees and expenses paid to thePlacement Agents were paid pursuant to the certain Placement Agent Agreement (the “Placement Agent Agreement”) between the Companyand Univest dated November 16, 2018.A registration statement relating to the IPO was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and was declared effectiveby the SEC as of December 19, 2018.The Company also issued the Placement Agents warrants to purchase 40,833 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exerciseprice of $9.60 per share, which warrants are exercisable from time to time, in whole or in part, during the fiveyear period commencing six monthsfrom the effective date Effectiveness Date. If there is no effective registration statement registering the shares of common stock that thewarrants may be exercisable into, then the warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis.67Table of ContentsOn February 4, 2019, the Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “INMB”.Results of OperationsComparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017Year EndedDecember 31,2018December 31,2017ChangeChange$$$%General and Administrative$11,334,634$546,118$10,788,9481,975%Research and Development1,105,389435,362680,027160%Other Income(149,994)(149,994)(100)%Net loss$(12,440,023)$(831,486)$11,618,537General and AdministrativeOperating expenses were $11,334,634 for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $546,118 for the year ended December 31,2017. The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019. We anticipate our cash andcash equivalents (including the proceeds from our February 2019 IPO will last through December 31, 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.At December 31, 2018, we had a cash balance of $186,204, and $1,370,711 as of December 31, 2017. The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017. The decrease in our working capital was mainly due to the usage of cash inconnection with our clinical trials, and due to the usage of cash in connection with legal, accounting and consulting efforts in anticipation ofbecoming a public company.Cash FlowsThe following table provides information regarding our cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:Year EndedDecember 31,20182017Net cash used in operating activities$(2,058,994)$(761,834)Net cash used in investing activities(100,000)Net cash provided by financing activities900,0002,056,000Impact on cash from foreign currency translation(25,513)34,886Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents$(1,184,507)$1,229,052Net Cash Used in Operating ActivitiesThe Company used cash of $2,058,994 and $761,834 in operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017,respectively.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures.

The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019.

The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OFEQUITY SECURITIESCommon StockOur common stock began trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol “INMB” on February 4, 2019. Prior to that, there was no publicmarket for our common stock. As a result, we have not set forth quarterly information with respect to the high and low prices for our commonstock for the two most recent fiscal years or provided a performance graph.As of March 25, 2019, there were 9,740,261 shares of our common stock outstanding held by approximately 63 holders of record.Sales of Unregistered SecuritiesOn May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company recorded $4,626,000of stockbased compensation expense during the year ended December 31, 2018 for the 600,000 shares of common stock to be issued.During the year ended December 31, 2018, to complete a series of funding provided for in the Company’s joint development agreementdated September 3, 2016, the Company received $900,000 in cash from Luminus in exchange for 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.Luminus is owned by a significant shareholder of the Company.In connection with the foregoing, we relied upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of1933, as amended, for transactions not involving a public offering.Purchases of Equity Securities by the IssuerThere were no repurchases of our common stock during the year ended December 31, 2018.58Table of ContentsEquity Compensation Plan InformationAs of December 31, 2018, all compensation based on our equity was awarded under the INmune Bio, Inc. 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the“2017 Plan”).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, Immune Ventures assigned all of its rights, obligations and liabilities under the Exclusive LicenseAgreement between the University of Pittsburgh – Of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education and Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, the Company agreed to convert the amount Immune Ventures paid of $162,634 into shares of theCompany’s common stock valued at $7.71 per share, based on the per share value of the shares issued to Xencor, for 21,094 shares for thereimbursement of amounts paid by the Assignor to the University of Pittsburgh, which the Company recorded as stockbased compensationwithin research and development expense. These shares were issued on December 31, 2017.During 2017, the Company issued fully vested warrants to purchase 31,667 shares of the Company’s common stock to a third party inconjunction with the common stock sold for cash, with an exercise price of $1.50 per share, maturity date of June 30, 2022, and fair value of$36,922 using the BlackScholes optionpricing model, which were recorded as stockbased compensation.During March 2018, the CEO and CFO were each granted an option to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a$7.80 exercise price. Onethird of the options vested on January 1, 2018 and the remainder shall vest on a monthly basis over a 24 month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $5,115,693 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.During March 2018, a board member was granted 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a $7.80 exercise price. Theseoptions vest over a 24month term. The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,557,847 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricingmodel.During April 2018, the Company granted options to purchase 108,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to each of four Boardmembers, of which 3,000 options shall vest monthly. The options have a 10year term and a $7.80 exercise price and vest over a 36month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,743,894 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.On May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. The Company recorded stockbased compensation based onthe Company’s estimate of the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of the issuance date, which the Company estimated using the thirdparty valuation it obtained in connection with the acquisition of the Xencor license which valued the Company’s common stock at $7.71 pershare.OffBalance Sheet ArrangementsDuring the periods presented, we did not have any offbalance sheet arrangements as defined under SEC rules.Licensing and Collaboration AgreementsWe anticipate that inlicensing, outlicensing and strategic collaborations will become an integral part of our operations, providing thecompany with opportunities to leverage our partners’ expertise and capabilities to further expand the potential of our technologies, productcandidates and revenue streams.66Table of ContentsXencorIn October 2017, we licensed INB03, also known as XPro1595, from Xencor. This exclusive, global, unrestricted license came withconsiderable knowhow, intellectual property, preclinical data, regulatory documentation and product stocks. Currently, we are focused on theimmuneoncology uses of this unique asset. In the future, we may develop the asset in a wide variety of therapeutic areas, with a variety ofdelivery techniques by ourselves or in conjunction with partners.Unit OfferingIn June 2017, the Company completed a private placement in which we sold 1,393,335 of units to accredited investors at a per unit priceof $10,000 with each unit consisting of 6,667 shares of our common stock, and received net proceeds of approximately $2,056,000, net ofissuance costs of $34,000. Pursuant to the subscription agreement between the Company and the investors of the offering, for a period of twoyears from June 30, 2017, if the Company sells shares of common stock or the right to receive common stock at a price per share which valuesthe Company at less than $10,000,000, the Company will issue additional shares of common stock to each investor in the offering such that theinvestor will receive the same effective price per share as the investors in any such future offering, however the Company has not sold itscommon stock at a valuation of less than $10,000,000 since the inception of this agreement. Pursuant to the subscription agreement, theCompany agreed to file a registration statement to register the shares of common stock sold in the offering within five months after the finalclosing and seek to have the registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within six months of the filingor else incur penalties, however the Company was unable to meet this timeline. The Company received waivers from all shareholders except forone pursuant to the registration rights. We expect to pay the one investor who did not waive its registration rights approximately $1,500 inpenalties. The offer and sale of the units were made in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded under Section 4(a)(2) of theSecurities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. The unit offering was not conducted in connection with a public offering,and no public solicitation or advertisement was made or relied upon by the investors in connection with the unit offering.In connection with the offering we paid a registered broker dealer a commission of $47,500, and we issued warrants to purchase 31,667shares of our common stock with a strike price of $1.50 per share for 5 years from June 30, 2017, with a fair value of $36,922.Initial Public OfferingThe Company entered into subscription agreements for the initial public offing (“IPO”) and sold, on a best efforts basis, 1,020,820shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a per share purchase price of $8.00 per share (including subscription agreements withinsiders of the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $416,000). In connection with the IPO, the Company received gross proceeds of$8,166,560 before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. Univest Securities, LLC (“Univest”) served as the lead placementagent for the IPO and WallachBeth Capital, LLC and WestPark Capital, Inc. were coplacement agents (Univest, Wallach Beth Capital, LLC andWestPark Capital, Inc. are collectively referred to as the Placement Agents”). In connection with the IPO, the Company paid the PlacementAgents $571,659 in commissions and reimbursed Univest for its outofpocket expenses.The Company also agreed to pay Univest an advisory fee of $30,000 upon the closing of the IPO. The fees and expenses paid to thePlacement Agents were paid pursuant to the certain Placement Agent Agreement (the “Placement Agent Agreement”) between the Companyand Univest dated November 16, 2018.A registration statement relating to the IPO was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and was declared effectiveby the SEC as of December 19, 2018.The Company also issued the Placement Agents warrants to purchase 40,833 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exerciseprice of $9.60 per share, which warrants are exercisable from time to time, in whole or in part, during the fiveyear period commencing six monthsfrom the effective date Effectiveness Date. If there is no effective registration statement registering the shares of common stock that thewarrants may be exercisable into, then the warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis.67Table of ContentsOn February 4, 2019, the Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “INMB”.Results of OperationsComparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017Year EndedDecember 31,2018December 31,2017ChangeChange$$$%General and Administrative$11,334,634$546,118$10,788,9481,975%Research and Development1,105,389435,362680,027160%Other Income(149,994)(149,994)(100)%Net loss$(12,440,023)$(831,486)$11,618,537General and AdministrativeOperating expenses were $11,334,634 for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $546,118 for the year ended December 31,2017. The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019. We anticipate our cash andcash equivalents (including the proceeds from our February 2019 IPO will last through December 31, 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.At December 31, 2018, we had a cash balance of $186,204, and $1,370,711 as of December 31, 2017. The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017. The decrease in our working capital was mainly due to the usage of cash inconnection with our clinical trials, and due to the usage of cash in connection with legal, accounting and consulting efforts in anticipation ofbecoming a public company.Cash FlowsThe following table provides information regarding our cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:Year EndedDecember 31,20182017Net cash used in operating activities$(2,058,994)$(761,834)Net cash used in investing activities(100,000)Net cash provided by financing activities900,0002,056,000Impact on cash from foreign currency translation(25,513)34,886Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents$(1,184,507)$1,229,052Net Cash Used in Operating ActivitiesThe Company used cash of $2,058,994 and $761,834 in operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017,respectively.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures.

The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019.

The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OFEQUITY SECURITIESCommon StockOur common stock began trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol “INMB” on February 4, 2019. Prior to that, there was no publicmarket for our common stock. As a result, we have not set forth quarterly information with respect to the high and low prices for our commonstock for the two most recent fiscal years or provided a performance graph.As of March 25, 2019, there were 9,740,261 shares of our common stock outstanding held by approximately 63 holders of record.Sales of Unregistered SecuritiesOn May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company recorded $4,626,000of stockbased compensation expense during the year ended December 31, 2018 for the 600,000 shares of common stock to be issued.During the year ended December 31, 2018, to complete a series of funding provided for in the Company’s joint development agreementdated September 3, 2016, the Company received $900,000 in cash from Luminus in exchange for 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.Luminus is owned by a significant shareholder of the Company.In connection with the foregoing, we relied upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of1933, as amended, for transactions not involving a public offering.Purchases of Equity Securities by the IssuerThere were no repurchases of our common stock during the year ended December 31, 2018.58Table of ContentsEquity Compensation Plan InformationAs of December 31, 2018, all compensation based on our equity was awarded under the INmune Bio, Inc. 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the“2017 Plan”).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, Immune Ventures assigned all of its rights, obligations and liabilities under the Exclusive LicenseAgreement between the University of Pittsburgh – Of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education and Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, the Company agreed to convert the amount Immune Ventures paid of $162,634 into shares of theCompany’s common stock valued at $7.71 per share, based on the per share value of the shares issued to Xencor, for 21,094 shares for thereimbursement of amounts paid by the Assignor to the University of Pittsburgh, which the Company recorded as stockbased compensationwithin research and development expense. These shares were issued on December 31, 2017.During 2017, the Company issued fully vested warrants to purchase 31,667 shares of the Company’s common stock to a third party inconjunction with the common stock sold for cash, with an exercise price of $1.50 per share, maturity date of June 30, 2022, and fair value of$36,922 using the BlackScholes optionpricing model, which were recorded as stockbased compensation.During March 2018, the CEO and CFO were each granted an option to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a$7.80 exercise price. Onethird of the options vested on January 1, 2018 and the remainder shall vest on a monthly basis over a 24 month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $5,115,693 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.During March 2018, a board member was granted 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a $7.80 exercise price. Theseoptions vest over a 24month term. The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,557,847 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricingmodel.During April 2018, the Company granted options to purchase 108,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to each of four Boardmembers, of which 3,000 options shall vest monthly. The options have a 10year term and a $7.80 exercise price and vest over a 36month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,743,894 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.On May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. The Company recorded stockbased compensation based onthe Company’s estimate of the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of the issuance date, which the Company estimated using the thirdparty valuation it obtained in connection with the acquisition of the Xencor license which valued the Company’s common stock at $7.71 pershare.OffBalance Sheet ArrangementsDuring the periods presented, we did not have any offbalance sheet arrangements as defined under SEC rules.Licensing and Collaboration AgreementsWe anticipate that inlicensing, outlicensing and strategic collaborations will become an integral part of our operations, providing thecompany with opportunities to leverage our partners’ expertise and capabilities to further expand the potential of our technologies, productcandidates and revenue streams.66Table of ContentsXencorIn October 2017, we licensed INB03, also known as XPro1595, from Xencor. This exclusive, global, unrestricted license came withconsiderable knowhow, intellectual property, preclinical data, regulatory documentation and product stocks. Currently, we are focused on theimmuneoncology uses of this unique asset. In the future, we may develop the asset in a wide variety of therapeutic areas, with a variety ofdelivery techniques by ourselves or in conjunction with partners.Unit OfferingIn June 2017, the Company completed a private placement in which we sold 1,393,335 of units to accredited investors at a per unit priceof $10,000 with each unit consisting of 6,667 shares of our common stock, and received net proceeds of approximately $2,056,000, net ofissuance costs of $34,000. Pursuant to the subscription agreement between the Company and the investors of the offering, for a period of twoyears from June 30, 2017, if the Company sells shares of common stock or the right to receive common stock at a price per share which valuesthe Company at less than $10,000,000, the Company will issue additional shares of common stock to each investor in the offering such that theinvestor will receive the same effective price per share as the investors in any such future offering, however the Company has not sold itscommon stock at a valuation of less than $10,000,000 since the inception of this agreement. Pursuant to the subscription agreement, theCompany agreed to file a registration statement to register the shares of common stock sold in the offering within five months after the finalclosing and seek to have the registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within six months of the filingor else incur penalties, however the Company was unable to meet this timeline. The Company received waivers from all shareholders except forone pursuant to the registration rights. We expect to pay the one investor who did not waive its registration rights approximately $1,500 inpenalties. The offer and sale of the units were made in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded under Section 4(a)(2) of theSecurities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. The unit offering was not conducted in connection with a public offering,and no public solicitation or advertisement was made or relied upon by the investors in connection with the unit offering.In connection with the offering we paid a registered broker dealer a commission of $47,500, and we issued warrants to purchase 31,667shares of our common stock with a strike price of $1.50 per share for 5 years from June 30, 2017, with a fair value of $36,922.Initial Public OfferingThe Company entered into subscription agreements for the initial public offing (“IPO”) and sold, on a best efforts basis, 1,020,820shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a per share purchase price of $8.00 per share (including subscription agreements withinsiders of the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $416,000). In connection with the IPO, the Company received gross proceeds of$8,166,560 before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. Univest Securities, LLC (“Univest”) served as the lead placementagent for the IPO and WallachBeth Capital, LLC and WestPark Capital, Inc. were coplacement agents (Univest, Wallach Beth Capital, LLC andWestPark Capital, Inc. are collectively referred to as the Placement Agents”). In connection with the IPO, the Company paid the PlacementAgents $571,659 in commissions and reimbursed Univest for its outofpocket expenses.The Company also agreed to pay Univest an advisory fee of $30,000 upon the closing of the IPO. The fees and expenses paid to thePlacement Agents were paid pursuant to the certain Placement Agent Agreement (the “Placement Agent Agreement”) between the Companyand Univest dated November 16, 2018.A registration statement relating to the IPO was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and was declared effectiveby the SEC as of December 19, 2018.The Company also issued the Placement Agents warrants to purchase 40,833 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exerciseprice of $9.60 per share, which warrants are exercisable from time to time, in whole or in part, during the fiveyear period commencing six monthsfrom the effective date Effectiveness Date. If there is no effective registration statement registering the shares of common stock that thewarrants may be exercisable into, then the warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis.67Table of ContentsOn February 4, 2019, the Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “INMB”.Results of OperationsComparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017Year EndedDecember 31,2018December 31,2017ChangeChange$$$%General and Administrative$11,334,634$546,118$10,788,9481,975%Research and Development1,105,389435,362680,027160%Other Income(149,994)(149,994)(100)%Net loss$(12,440,023)$(831,486)$11,618,537General and AdministrativeOperating expenses were $11,334,634 for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $546,118 for the year ended December 31,2017. The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019. We anticipate our cash andcash equivalents (including the proceeds from our February 2019 IPO will last through December 31, 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.At December 31, 2018, we had a cash balance of $186,204, and $1,370,711 as of December 31, 2017. The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017. The decrease in our working capital was mainly due to the usage of cash inconnection with our clinical trials, and due to the usage of cash in connection with legal, accounting and consulting efforts in anticipation ofbecoming a public company.Cash FlowsThe following table provides information regarding our cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:Year EndedDecember 31,20182017Net cash used in operating activities$(2,058,994)$(761,834)Net cash used in investing activities(100,000)Net cash provided by financing activities900,0002,056,000Impact on cash from foreign currency translation(25,513)34,886Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents$(1,184,507)$1,229,052Net Cash Used in Operating ActivitiesThe Company used cash of $2,058,994 and $761,834 in operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017,respectively.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures.

The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019.

The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OFEQUITY SECURITIESCommon StockOur common stock began trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol “INMB” on February 4, 2019. Prior to that, there was no publicmarket for our common stock. As a result, we have not set forth quarterly information with respect to the high and low prices for our commonstock for the two most recent fiscal years or provided a performance graph.As of March 25, 2019, there were 9,740,261 shares of our common stock outstanding held by approximately 63 holders of record.Sales of Unregistered SecuritiesOn May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company recorded $4,626,000of stockbased compensation expense during the year ended December 31, 2018 for the 600,000 shares of common stock to be issued.During the year ended December 31, 2018, to complete a series of funding provided for in the Company’s joint development agreementdated September 3, 2016, the Company received $900,000 in cash from Luminus in exchange for 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.Luminus is owned by a significant shareholder of the Company.In connection with the foregoing, we relied upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of1933, as amended, for transactions not involving a public offering.Purchases of Equity Securities by the IssuerThere were no repurchases of our common stock during the year ended December 31, 2018.58Table of ContentsEquity Compensation Plan InformationAs of December 31, 2018, all compensation based on our equity was awarded under the INmune Bio, Inc. 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the“2017 Plan”).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, Immune Ventures assigned all of its rights, obligations and liabilities under the Exclusive LicenseAgreement between the University of Pittsburgh – Of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education and Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, the Company agreed to convert the amount Immune Ventures paid of $162,634 into shares of theCompany’s common stock valued at $7.71 per share, based on the per share value of the shares issued to Xencor, for 21,094 shares for thereimbursement of amounts paid by the Assignor to the University of Pittsburgh, which the Company recorded as stockbased compensationwithin research and development expense. These shares were issued on December 31, 2017.During 2017, the Company issued fully vested warrants to purchase 31,667 shares of the Company’s common stock to a third party inconjunction with the common stock sold for cash, with an exercise price of $1.50 per share, maturity date of June 30, 2022, and fair value of$36,922 using the BlackScholes optionpricing model, which were recorded as stockbased compensation.During March 2018, the CEO and CFO were each granted an option to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a$7.80 exercise price. Onethird of the options vested on January 1, 2018 and the remainder shall vest on a monthly basis over a 24 month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $5,115,693 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.During March 2018, a board member was granted 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a $7.80 exercise price. Theseoptions vest over a 24month term. The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,557,847 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricingmodel.During April 2018, the Company granted options to purchase 108,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to each of four Boardmembers, of which 3,000 options shall vest monthly. The options have a 10year term and a $7.80 exercise price and vest over a 36month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,743,894 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.On May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. The Company recorded stockbased compensation based onthe Company’s estimate of the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of the issuance date, which the Company estimated using the thirdparty valuation it obtained in connection with the acquisition of the Xencor license which valued the Company’s common stock at $7.71 pershare.OffBalance Sheet ArrangementsDuring the periods presented, we did not have any offbalance sheet arrangements as defined under SEC rules.Licensing and Collaboration AgreementsWe anticipate that inlicensing, outlicensing and strategic collaborations will become an integral part of our operations, providing thecompany with opportunities to leverage our partners’ expertise and capabilities to further expand the potential of our technologies, productcandidates and revenue streams.66Table of ContentsXencorIn October 2017, we licensed INB03, also known as XPro1595, from Xencor. This exclusive, global, unrestricted license came withconsiderable knowhow, intellectual property, preclinical data, regulatory documentation and product stocks. Currently, we are focused on theimmuneoncology uses of this unique asset. In the future, we may develop the asset in a wide variety of therapeutic areas, with a variety ofdelivery techniques by ourselves or in conjunction with partners.Unit OfferingIn June 2017, the Company completed a private placement in which we sold 1,393,335 of units to accredited investors at a per unit priceof $10,000 with each unit consisting of 6,667 shares of our common stock, and received net proceeds of approximately $2,056,000, net ofissuance costs of $34,000. Pursuant to the subscription agreement between the Company and the investors of the offering, for a period of twoyears from June 30, 2017, if the Company sells shares of common stock or the right to receive common stock at a price per share which valuesthe Company at less than $10,000,000, the Company will issue additional shares of common stock to each investor in the offering such that theinvestor will receive the same effective price per share as the investors in any such future offering, however the Company has not sold itscommon stock at a valuation of less than $10,000,000 since the inception of this agreement. Pursuant to the subscription agreement, theCompany agreed to file a registration statement to register the shares of common stock sold in the offering within five months after the finalclosing and seek to have the registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within six months of the filingor else incur penalties, however the Company was unable to meet this timeline. The Company received waivers from all shareholders except forone pursuant to the registration rights. We expect to pay the one investor who did not waive its registration rights approximately $1,500 inpenalties. The offer and sale of the units were made in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded under Section 4(a)(2) of theSecurities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. The unit offering was not conducted in connection with a public offering,and no public solicitation or advertisement was made or relied upon by the investors in connection with the unit offering.In connection with the offering we paid a registered broker dealer a commission of $47,500, and we issued warrants to purchase 31,667shares of our common stock with a strike price of $1.50 per share for 5 years from June 30, 2017, with a fair value of $36,922.Initial Public OfferingThe Company entered into subscription agreements for the initial public offing (“IPO”) and sold, on a best efforts basis, 1,020,820shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a per share purchase price of $8.00 per share (including subscription agreements withinsiders of the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $416,000). In connection with the IPO, the Company received gross proceeds of$8,166,560 before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. Univest Securities, LLC (“Univest”) served as the lead placementagent for the IPO and WallachBeth Capital, LLC and WestPark Capital, Inc. were coplacement agents (Univest, Wallach Beth Capital, LLC andWestPark Capital, Inc. are collectively referred to as the Placement Agents”). In connection with the IPO, the Company paid the PlacementAgents $571,659 in commissions and reimbursed Univest for its outofpocket expenses.The Company also agreed to pay Univest an advisory fee of $30,000 upon the closing of the IPO. The fees and expenses paid to thePlacement Agents were paid pursuant to the certain Placement Agent Agreement (the “Placement Agent Agreement”) between the Companyand Univest dated November 16, 2018.A registration statement relating to the IPO was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and was declared effectiveby the SEC as of December 19, 2018.The Company also issued the Placement Agents warrants to purchase 40,833 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exerciseprice of $9.60 per share, which warrants are exercisable from time to time, in whole or in part, during the fiveyear period commencing six monthsfrom the effective date Effectiveness Date. If there is no effective registration statement registering the shares of common stock that thewarrants may be exercisable into, then the warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis.67Table of ContentsOn February 4, 2019, the Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “INMB”.Results of OperationsComparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017Year EndedDecember 31,2018December 31,2017ChangeChange$$$%General and Administrative$11,334,634$546,118$10,788,9481,975%Research and Development1,105,389435,362680,027160%Other Income(149,994)(149,994)(100)%Net loss$(12,440,023)$(831,486)$11,618,537General and AdministrativeOperating expenses were $11,334,634 for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $546,118 for the year ended December 31,2017. The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019. We anticipate our cash andcash equivalents (including the proceeds from our February 2019 IPO will last through December 31, 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.At December 31, 2018, we had a cash balance of $186,204, and $1,370,711 as of December 31, 2017. The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017. The decrease in our working capital was mainly due to the usage of cash inconnection with our clinical trials, and due to the usage of cash in connection with legal, accounting and consulting efforts in anticipation ofbecoming a public company.Cash FlowsThe following table provides information regarding our cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:Year EndedDecember 31,20182017Net cash used in operating activities$(2,058,994)$(761,834)Net cash used in investing activities(100,000)Net cash provided by financing activities900,0002,056,000Impact on cash from foreign currency translation(25,513)34,886Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents$(1,184,507)$1,229,052Net Cash Used in Operating ActivitiesThe Company used cash of $2,058,994 and $761,834 in operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017,respectively.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures.

The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019.

The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OFEQUITY SECURITIESCommon StockOur common stock began trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol “INMB” on February 4, 2019. Prior to that, there was no publicmarket for our common stock. As a result, we have not set forth quarterly information with respect to the high and low prices for our commonstock for the two most recent fiscal years or provided a performance graph.As of March 25, 2019, there were 9,740,261 shares of our common stock outstanding held by approximately 63 holders of record.Sales of Unregistered SecuritiesOn May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company recorded $4,626,000of stockbased compensation expense during the year ended December 31, 2018 for the 600,000 shares of common stock to be issued.During the year ended December 31, 2018, to complete a series of funding provided for in the Company’s joint development agreementdated September 3, 2016, the Company received $900,000 in cash from Luminus in exchange for 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.Luminus is owned by a significant shareholder of the Company.In connection with the foregoing, we relied upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of1933, as amended, for transactions not involving a public offering.Purchases of Equity Securities by the IssuerThere were no repurchases of our common stock during the year ended December 31, 2018.58Table of ContentsEquity Compensation Plan InformationAs of December 31, 2018, all compensation based on our equity was awarded under the INmune Bio, Inc. 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the“2017 Plan”).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, Immune Ventures assigned all of its rights, obligations and liabilities under the Exclusive LicenseAgreement between the University of Pittsburgh – Of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education and Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, the Company agreed to convert the amount Immune Ventures paid of $162,634 into shares of theCompany’s common stock valued at $7.71 per share, based on the per share value of the shares issued to Xencor, for 21,094 shares for thereimbursement of amounts paid by the Assignor to the University of Pittsburgh, which the Company recorded as stockbased compensationwithin research and development expense. These shares were issued on December 31, 2017.During 2017, the Company issued fully vested warrants to purchase 31,667 shares of the Company’s common stock to a third party inconjunction with the common stock sold for cash, with an exercise price of $1.50 per share, maturity date of June 30, 2022, and fair value of$36,922 using the BlackScholes optionpricing model, which were recorded as stockbased compensation.During March 2018, the CEO and CFO were each granted an option to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a$7.80 exercise price. Onethird of the options vested on January 1, 2018 and the remainder shall vest on a monthly basis over a 24 month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $5,115,693 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.During March 2018, a board member was granted 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a $7.80 exercise price. Theseoptions vest over a 24month term. The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,557,847 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricingmodel.During April 2018, the Company granted options to purchase 108,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to each of four Boardmembers, of which 3,000 options shall vest monthly. The options have a 10year term and a $7.80 exercise price and vest over a 36month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,743,894 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.On May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. The Company recorded stockbased compensation based onthe Company’s estimate of the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of the issuance date, which the Company estimated using the thirdparty valuation it obtained in connection with the acquisition of the Xencor license which valued the Company’s common stock at $7.71 pershare.OffBalance Sheet ArrangementsDuring the periods presented, we did not have any offbalance sheet arrangements as defined under SEC rules.Licensing and Collaboration AgreementsWe anticipate that inlicensing, outlicensing and strategic collaborations will become an integral part of our operations, providing thecompany with opportunities to leverage our partners’ expertise and capabilities to further expand the potential of our technologies, productcandidates and revenue streams.66Table of ContentsXencorIn October 2017, we licensed INB03, also known as XPro1595, from Xencor. This exclusive, global, unrestricted license came withconsiderable knowhow, intellectual property, preclinical data, regulatory documentation and product stocks. Currently, we are focused on theimmuneoncology uses of this unique asset. In the future, we may develop the asset in a wide variety of therapeutic areas, with a variety ofdelivery techniques by ourselves or in conjunction with partners.Unit OfferingIn June 2017, the Company completed a private placement in which we sold 1,393,335 of units to accredited investors at a per unit priceof $10,000 with each unit consisting of 6,667 shares of our common stock, and received net proceeds of approximately $2,056,000, net ofissuance costs of $34,000. Pursuant to the subscription agreement between the Company and the investors of the offering, for a period of twoyears from June 30, 2017, if the Company sells shares of common stock or the right to receive common stock at a price per share which valuesthe Company at less than $10,000,000, the Company will issue additional shares of common stock to each investor in the offering such that theinvestor will receive the same effective price per share as the investors in any such future offering, however the Company has not sold itscommon stock at a valuation of less than $10,000,000 since the inception of this agreement. Pursuant to the subscription agreement, theCompany agreed to file a registration statement to register the shares of common stock sold in the offering within five months after the finalclosing and seek to have the registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within six months of the filingor else incur penalties, however the Company was unable to meet this timeline. The Company received waivers from all shareholders except forone pursuant to the registration rights. We expect to pay the one investor who did not waive its registration rights approximately $1,500 inpenalties. The offer and sale of the units were made in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded under Section 4(a)(2) of theSecurities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. The unit offering was not conducted in connection with a public offering,and no public solicitation or advertisement was made or relied upon by the investors in connection with the unit offering.In connection with the offering we paid a registered broker dealer a commission of $47,500, and we issued warrants to purchase 31,667shares of our common stock with a strike price of $1.50 per share for 5 years from June 30, 2017, with a fair value of $36,922.Initial Public OfferingThe Company entered into subscription agreements for the initial public offing (“IPO”) and sold, on a best efforts basis, 1,020,820shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a per share purchase price of $8.00 per share (including subscription agreements withinsiders of the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $416,000). In connection with the IPO, the Company received gross proceeds of$8,166,560 before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. Univest Securities, LLC (“Univest”) served as the lead placementagent for the IPO and WallachBeth Capital, LLC and WestPark Capital, Inc. were coplacement agents (Univest, Wallach Beth Capital, LLC andWestPark Capital, Inc. are collectively referred to as the Placement Agents”). In connection with the IPO, the Company paid the PlacementAgents $571,659 in commissions and reimbursed Univest for its outofpocket expenses.The Company also agreed to pay Univest an advisory fee of $30,000 upon the closing of the IPO. The fees and expenses paid to thePlacement Agents were paid pursuant to the certain Placement Agent Agreement (the “Placement Agent Agreement”) between the Companyand Univest dated November 16, 2018.A registration statement relating to the IPO was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and was declared effectiveby the SEC as of December 19, 2018.The Company also issued the Placement Agents warrants to purchase 40,833 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exerciseprice of $9.60 per share, which warrants are exercisable from time to time, in whole or in part, during the fiveyear period commencing six monthsfrom the effective date Effectiveness Date. If there is no effective registration statement registering the shares of common stock that thewarrants may be exercisable into, then the warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis.67Table of ContentsOn February 4, 2019, the Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “INMB”.Results of OperationsComparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017Year EndedDecember 31,2018December 31,2017ChangeChange$$$%General and Administrative$11,334,634$546,118$10,788,9481,975%Research and Development1,105,389435,362680,027160%Other Income(149,994)(149,994)(100)%Net loss$(12,440,023)$(831,486)$11,618,537General and AdministrativeOperating expenses were $11,334,634 for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $546,118 for the year ended December 31,2017. The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019. We anticipate our cash andcash equivalents (including the proceeds from our February 2019 IPO will last through December 31, 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.At December 31, 2018, we had a cash balance of $186,204, and $1,370,711 as of December 31, 2017. The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017. The decrease in our working capital was mainly due to the usage of cash inconnection with our clinical trials, and due to the usage of cash in connection with legal, accounting and consulting efforts in anticipation ofbecoming a public company.Cash FlowsThe following table provides information regarding our cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:Year EndedDecember 31,20182017Net cash used in operating activities$(2,058,994)$(761,834)Net cash used in investing activities(100,000)Net cash provided by financing activities900,0002,056,000Impact on cash from foreign currency translation(25,513)34,886Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents$(1,184,507)$1,229,052Net Cash Used in Operating ActivitiesThe Company used cash of $2,058,994 and $761,834 in operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017,respectively.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures.

The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019.

The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OFEQUITY SECURITIESCommon StockOur common stock began trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol “INMB” on February 4, 2019. Prior to that, there was no publicmarket for our common stock. As a result, we have not set forth quarterly information with respect to the high and low prices for our commonstock for the two most recent fiscal years or provided a performance graph.As of March 25, 2019, there were 9,740,261 shares of our common stock outstanding held by approximately 63 holders of record.Sales of Unregistered SecuritiesOn May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company recorded $4,626,000of stockbased compensation expense during the year ended December 31, 2018 for the 600,000 shares of common stock to be issued.During the year ended December 31, 2018, to complete a series of funding provided for in the Company’s joint development agreementdated September 3, 2016, the Company received $900,000 in cash from Luminus in exchange for 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.Luminus is owned by a significant shareholder of the Company.In connection with the foregoing, we relied upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of1933, as amended, for transactions not involving a public offering.Purchases of Equity Securities by the IssuerThere were no repurchases of our common stock during the year ended December 31, 2018.58Table of ContentsEquity Compensation Plan InformationAs of December 31, 2018, all compensation based on our equity was awarded under the INmune Bio, Inc. 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the“2017 Plan”).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, Immune Ventures assigned all of its rights, obligations and liabilities under the Exclusive LicenseAgreement between the University of Pittsburgh – Of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education and Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, the Company agreed to convert the amount Immune Ventures paid of $162,634 into shares of theCompany’s common stock valued at $7.71 per share, based on the per share value of the shares issued to Xencor, for 21,094 shares for thereimbursement of amounts paid by the Assignor to the University of Pittsburgh, which the Company recorded as stockbased compensationwithin research and development expense. These shares were issued on December 31, 2017.During 2017, the Company issued fully vested warrants to purchase 31,667 shares of the Company’s common stock to a third party inconjunction with the common stock sold for cash, with an exercise price of $1.50 per share, maturity date of June 30, 2022, and fair value of$36,922 using the BlackScholes optionpricing model, which were recorded as stockbased compensation.During March 2018, the CEO and CFO were each granted an option to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a$7.80 exercise price. Onethird of the options vested on January 1, 2018 and the remainder shall vest on a monthly basis over a 24 month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $5,115,693 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.During March 2018, a board member was granted 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a $7.80 exercise price. Theseoptions vest over a 24month term. The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,557,847 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricingmodel.During April 2018, the Company granted options to purchase 108,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to each of four Boardmembers, of which 3,000 options shall vest monthly. The options have a 10year term and a $7.80 exercise price and vest over a 36month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,743,894 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.On May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. The Company recorded stockbased compensation based onthe Company’s estimate of the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of the issuance date, which the Company estimated using the thirdparty valuation it obtained in connection with the acquisition of the Xencor license which valued the Company’s common stock at $7.71 pershare.OffBalance Sheet ArrangementsDuring the periods presented, we did not have any offbalance sheet arrangements as defined under SEC rules.Licensing and Collaboration AgreementsWe anticipate that inlicensing, outlicensing and strategic collaborations will become an integral part of our operations, providing thecompany with opportunities to leverage our partners’ expertise and capabilities to further expand the potential of our technologies, productcandidates and revenue streams.66Table of ContentsXencorIn October 2017, we licensed INB03, also known as XPro1595, from Xencor. This exclusive, global, unrestricted license came withconsiderable knowhow, intellectual property, preclinical data, regulatory documentation and product stocks. Currently, we are focused on theimmuneoncology uses of this unique asset. In the future, we may develop the asset in a wide variety of therapeutic areas, with a variety ofdelivery techniques by ourselves or in conjunction with partners.Unit OfferingIn June 2017, the Company completed a private placement in which we sold 1,393,335 of units to accredited investors at a per unit priceof $10,000 with each unit consisting of 6,667 shares of our common stock, and received net proceeds of approximately $2,056,000, net ofissuance costs of $34,000. Pursuant to the subscription agreement between the Company and the investors of the offering, for a period of twoyears from June 30, 2017, if the Company sells shares of common stock or the right to receive common stock at a price per share which valuesthe Company at less than $10,000,000, the Company will issue additional shares of common stock to each investor in the offering such that theinvestor will receive the same effective price per share as the investors in any such future offering, however the Company has not sold itscommon stock at a valuation of less than $10,000,000 since the inception of this agreement. Pursuant to the subscription agreement, theCompany agreed to file a registration statement to register the shares of common stock sold in the offering within five months after the finalclosing and seek to have the registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within six months of the filingor else incur penalties, however the Company was unable to meet this timeline. The Company received waivers from all shareholders except forone pursuant to the registration rights. We expect to pay the one investor who did not waive its registration rights approximately $1,500 inpenalties. The offer and sale of the units were made in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded under Section 4(a)(2) of theSecurities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. The unit offering was not conducted in connection with a public offering,and no public solicitation or advertisement was made or relied upon by the investors in connection with the unit offering.In connection with the offering we paid a registered broker dealer a commission of $47,500, and we issued warrants to purchase 31,667shares of our common stock with a strike price of $1.50 per share for 5 years from June 30, 2017, with a fair value of $36,922.Initial Public OfferingThe Company entered into subscription agreements for the initial public offing (“IPO”) and sold, on a best efforts basis, 1,020,820shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a per share purchase price of $8.00 per share (including subscription agreements withinsiders of the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $416,000). In connection with the IPO, the Company received gross proceeds of$8,166,560 before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. Univest Securities, LLC (“Univest”) served as the lead placementagent for the IPO and WallachBeth Capital, LLC and WestPark Capital, Inc. were coplacement agents (Univest, Wallach Beth Capital, LLC andWestPark Capital, Inc. are collectively referred to as the Placement Agents”). In connection with the IPO, the Company paid the PlacementAgents $571,659 in commissions and reimbursed Univest for its outofpocket expenses.The Company also agreed to pay Univest an advisory fee of $30,000 upon the closing of the IPO. The fees and expenses paid to thePlacement Agents were paid pursuant to the certain Placement Agent Agreement (the “Placement Agent Agreement”) between the Companyand Univest dated November 16, 2018.A registration statement relating to the IPO was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and was declared effectiveby the SEC as of December 19, 2018.The Company also issued the Placement Agents warrants to purchase 40,833 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exerciseprice of $9.60 per share, which warrants are exercisable from time to time, in whole or in part, during the fiveyear period commencing six monthsfrom the effective date Effectiveness Date. If there is no effective registration statement registering the shares of common stock that thewarrants may be exercisable into, then the warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis.67Table of ContentsOn February 4, 2019, the Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “INMB”.Results of OperationsComparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017Year EndedDecember 31,2018December 31,2017ChangeChange$$$%General and Administrative$11,334,634$546,118$10,788,9481,975%Research and Development1,105,389435,362680,027160%Other Income(149,994)(149,994)(100)%Net loss$(12,440,023)$(831,486)$11,618,537General and AdministrativeOperating expenses were $11,334,634 for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $546,118 for the year ended December 31,2017. The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019. We anticipate our cash andcash equivalents (including the proceeds from our February 2019 IPO will last through December 31, 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.At December 31, 2018, we had a cash balance of $186,204, and $1,370,711 as of December 31, 2017. The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017. The decrease in our working capital was mainly due to the usage of cash inconnection with our clinical trials, and due to the usage of cash in connection with legal, accounting and consulting efforts in anticipation ofbecoming a public company.Cash FlowsThe following table provides information regarding our cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:Year EndedDecember 31,20182017Net cash used in operating activities$(2,058,994)$(761,834)Net cash used in investing activities(100,000)Net cash provided by financing activities900,0002,056,000Impact on cash from foreign currency translation(25,513)34,886Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents$(1,184,507)$1,229,052Net Cash Used in Operating ActivitiesThe Company used cash of $2,058,994 and $761,834 in operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017,respectively.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures.

The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019.

The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OFEQUITY SECURITIESCommon StockOur common stock began trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol “INMB” on February 4, 2019. Prior to that, there was no publicmarket for our common stock. As a result, we have not set forth quarterly information with respect to the high and low prices for our commonstock for the two most recent fiscal years or provided a performance graph.As of March 25, 2019, there were 9,740,261 shares of our common stock outstanding held by approximately 63 holders of record.Sales of Unregistered SecuritiesOn May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company recorded $4,626,000of stockbased compensation expense during the year ended December 31, 2018 for the 600,000 shares of common stock to be issued.During the year ended December 31, 2018, to complete a series of funding provided for in the Company’s joint development agreementdated September 3, 2016, the Company received $900,000 in cash from Luminus in exchange for 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.Luminus is owned by a significant shareholder of the Company.In connection with the foregoing, we relied upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of1933, as amended, for transactions not involving a public offering.Purchases of Equity Securities by the IssuerThere were no repurchases of our common stock during the year ended December 31, 2018.58Table of ContentsEquity Compensation Plan InformationAs of December 31, 2018, all compensation based on our equity was awarded under the INmune Bio, Inc. 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the“2017 Plan”).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, Immune Ventures assigned all of its rights, obligations and liabilities under the Exclusive LicenseAgreement between the University of Pittsburgh – Of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education and Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, the Company agreed to convert the amount Immune Ventures paid of $162,634 into shares of theCompany’s common stock valued at $7.71 per share, based on the per share value of the shares issued to Xencor, for 21,094 shares for thereimbursement of amounts paid by the Assignor to the University of Pittsburgh, which the Company recorded as stockbased compensationwithin research and development expense. These shares were issued on December 31, 2017.During 2017, the Company issued fully vested warrants to purchase 31,667 shares of the Company’s common stock to a third party inconjunction with the common stock sold for cash, with an exercise price of $1.50 per share, maturity date of June 30, 2022, and fair value of$36,922 using the BlackScholes optionpricing model, which were recorded as stockbased compensation.During March 2018, the CEO and CFO were each granted an option to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a$7.80 exercise price. Onethird of the options vested on January 1, 2018 and the remainder shall vest on a monthly basis over a 24 month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $5,115,693 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.During March 2018, a board member was granted 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a $7.80 exercise price. Theseoptions vest over a 24month term. The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,557,847 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricingmodel.During April 2018, the Company granted options to purchase 108,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to each of four Boardmembers, of which 3,000 options shall vest monthly. The options have a 10year term and a $7.80 exercise price and vest over a 36month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,743,894 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.On May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. The Company recorded stockbased compensation based onthe Company’s estimate of the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of the issuance date, which the Company estimated using the thirdparty valuation it obtained in connection with the acquisition of the Xencor license which valued the Company’s common stock at $7.71 pershare.OffBalance Sheet ArrangementsDuring the periods presented, we did not have any offbalance sheet arrangements as defined under SEC rules.Licensing and Collaboration AgreementsWe anticipate that inlicensing, outlicensing and strategic collaborations will become an integral part of our operations, providing thecompany with opportunities to leverage our partners’ expertise and capabilities to further expand the potential of our technologies, productcandidates and revenue streams.66Table of ContentsXencorIn October 2017, we licensed INB03, also known as XPro1595, from Xencor. This exclusive, global, unrestricted license came withconsiderable knowhow, intellectual property, preclinical data, regulatory documentation and product stocks. Currently, we are focused on theimmuneoncology uses of this unique asset. In the future, we may develop the asset in a wide variety of therapeutic areas, with a variety ofdelivery techniques by ourselves or in conjunction with partners.Unit OfferingIn June 2017, the Company completed a private placement in which we sold 1,393,335 of units to accredited investors at a per unit priceof $10,000 with each unit consisting of 6,667 shares of our common stock, and received net proceeds of approximately $2,056,000, net ofissuance costs of $34,000. Pursuant to the subscription agreement between the Company and the investors of the offering, for a period of twoyears from June 30, 2017, if the Company sells shares of common stock or the right to receive common stock at a price per share which valuesthe Company at less than $10,000,000, the Company will issue additional shares of common stock to each investor in the offering such that theinvestor will receive the same effective price per share as the investors in any such future offering, however the Company has not sold itscommon stock at a valuation of less than $10,000,000 since the inception of this agreement. Pursuant to the subscription agreement, theCompany agreed to file a registration statement to register the shares of common stock sold in the offering within five months after the finalclosing and seek to have the registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within six months of the filingor else incur penalties, however the Company was unable to meet this timeline. The Company received waivers from all shareholders except forone pursuant to the registration rights. We expect to pay the one investor who did not waive its registration rights approximately $1,500 inpenalties. The offer and sale of the units were made in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded under Section 4(a)(2) of theSecurities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. The unit offering was not conducted in connection with a public offering,and no public solicitation or advertisement was made or relied upon by the investors in connection with the unit offering.In connection with the offering we paid a registered broker dealer a commission of $47,500, and we issued warrants to purchase 31,667shares of our common stock with a strike price of $1.50 per share for 5 years from June 30, 2017, with a fair value of $36,922.Initial Public OfferingThe Company entered into subscription agreements for the initial public offing (“IPO”) and sold, on a best efforts basis, 1,020,820shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a per share purchase price of $8.00 per share (including subscription agreements withinsiders of the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $416,000). In connection with the IPO, the Company received gross proceeds of$8,166,560 before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. Univest Securities, LLC (“Univest”) served as the lead placementagent for the IPO and WallachBeth Capital, LLC and WestPark Capital, Inc. were coplacement agents (Univest, Wallach Beth Capital, LLC andWestPark Capital, Inc. are collectively referred to as the Placement Agents”). In connection with the IPO, the Company paid the PlacementAgents $571,659 in commissions and reimbursed Univest for its outofpocket expenses.The Company also agreed to pay Univest an advisory fee of $30,000 upon the closing of the IPO. The fees and expenses paid to thePlacement Agents were paid pursuant to the certain Placement Agent Agreement (the “Placement Agent Agreement”) between the Companyand Univest dated November 16, 2018.A registration statement relating to the IPO was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and was declared effectiveby the SEC as of December 19, 2018.The Company also issued the Placement Agents warrants to purchase 40,833 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exerciseprice of $9.60 per share, which warrants are exercisable from time to time, in whole or in part, during the fiveyear period commencing six monthsfrom the effective date Effectiveness Date. If there is no effective registration statement registering the shares of common stock that thewarrants may be exercisable into, then the warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis.67Table of ContentsOn February 4, 2019, the Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “INMB”.Results of OperationsComparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017Year EndedDecember 31,2018December 31,2017ChangeChange$$$%General and Administrative$11,334,634$546,118$10,788,9481,975%Research and Development1,105,389435,362680,027160%Other Income(149,994)(149,994)(100)%Net loss$(12,440,023)$(831,486)$11,618,537General and AdministrativeOperating expenses were $11,334,634 for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $546,118 for the year ended December 31,2017. The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019. We anticipate our cash andcash equivalents (including the proceeds from our February 2019 IPO will last through December 31, 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.At December 31, 2018, we had a cash balance of $186,204, and $1,370,711 as of December 31, 2017. The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017. The decrease in our working capital was mainly due to the usage of cash inconnection with our clinical trials, and due to the usage of cash in connection with legal, accounting and consulting efforts in anticipation ofbecoming a public company.Cash FlowsThe following table provides information regarding our cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:Year EndedDecember 31,20182017Net cash used in operating activities$(2,058,994)$(761,834)Net cash used in investing activities(100,000)Net cash provided by financing activities900,0002,056,000Impact on cash from foreign currency translation(25,513)34,886Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents$(1,184,507)$1,229,052Net Cash Used in Operating ActivitiesThe Company used cash of $2,058,994 and $761,834 in operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017,respectively.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures.

The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019.

The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OFEQUITY SECURITIESCommon StockOur common stock began trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol “INMB” on February 4, 2019. Prior to that, there was no publicmarket for our common stock. As a result, we have not set forth quarterly information with respect to the high and low prices for our commonstock for the two most recent fiscal years or provided a performance graph.As of March 25, 2019, there were 9,740,261 shares of our common stock outstanding held by approximately 63 holders of record.Sales of Unregistered SecuritiesOn May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company recorded $4,626,000of stockbased compensation expense during the year ended December 31, 2018 for the 600,000 shares of common stock to be issued.During the year ended December 31, 2018, to complete a series of funding provided for in the Company’s joint development agreementdated September 3, 2016, the Company received $900,000 in cash from Luminus in exchange for 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.Luminus is owned by a significant shareholder of the Company.In connection with the foregoing, we relied upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of1933, as amended, for transactions not involving a public offering.Purchases of Equity Securities by the IssuerThere were no repurchases of our common stock during the year ended December 31, 2018.58Table of ContentsEquity Compensation Plan InformationAs of December 31, 2018, all compensation based on our equity was awarded under the INmune Bio, Inc. 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the“2017 Plan”).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, Immune Ventures assigned all of its rights, obligations and liabilities under the Exclusive LicenseAgreement between the University of Pittsburgh – Of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education and Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, the Company agreed to convert the amount Immune Ventures paid of $162,634 into shares of theCompany’s common stock valued at $7.71 per share, based on the per share value of the shares issued to Xencor, for 21,094 shares for thereimbursement of amounts paid by the Assignor to the University of Pittsburgh, which the Company recorded as stockbased compensationwithin research and development expense. These shares were issued on December 31, 2017.During 2017, the Company issued fully vested warrants to purchase 31,667 shares of the Company’s common stock to a third party inconjunction with the common stock sold for cash, with an exercise price of $1.50 per share, maturity date of June 30, 2022, and fair value of$36,922 using the BlackScholes optionpricing model, which were recorded as stockbased compensation.During March 2018, the CEO and CFO were each granted an option to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a$7.80 exercise price. Onethird of the options vested on January 1, 2018 and the remainder shall vest on a monthly basis over a 24 month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $5,115,693 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.During March 2018, a board member was granted 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a $7.80 exercise price. Theseoptions vest over a 24month term. The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,557,847 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricingmodel.During April 2018, the Company granted options to purchase 108,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to each of four Boardmembers, of which 3,000 options shall vest monthly. The options have a 10year term and a $7.80 exercise price and vest over a 36month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,743,894 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.On May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. The Company recorded stockbased compensation based onthe Company’s estimate of the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of the issuance date, which the Company estimated using the thirdparty valuation it obtained in connection with the acquisition of the Xencor license which valued the Company’s common stock at $7.71 pershare.OffBalance Sheet ArrangementsDuring the periods presented, we did not have any offbalance sheet arrangements as defined under SEC rules.Licensing and Collaboration AgreementsWe anticipate that inlicensing, outlicensing and strategic collaborations will become an integral part of our operations, providing thecompany with opportunities to leverage our partners’ expertise and capabilities to further expand the potential of our technologies, productcandidates and revenue streams.66Table of ContentsXencorIn October 2017, we licensed INB03, also known as XPro1595, from Xencor. This exclusive, global, unrestricted license came withconsiderable knowhow, intellectual property, preclinical data, regulatory documentation and product stocks. Currently, we are focused on theimmuneoncology uses of this unique asset. In the future, we may develop the asset in a wide variety of therapeutic areas, with a variety ofdelivery techniques by ourselves or in conjunction with partners.Unit OfferingIn June 2017, the Company completed a private placement in which we sold 1,393,335 of units to accredited investors at a per unit priceof $10,000 with each unit consisting of 6,667 shares of our common stock, and received net proceeds of approximately $2,056,000, net ofissuance costs of $34,000. Pursuant to the subscription agreement between the Company and the investors of the offering, for a period of twoyears from June 30, 2017, if the Company sells shares of common stock or the right to receive common stock at a price per share which valuesthe Company at less than $10,000,000, the Company will issue additional shares of common stock to each investor in the offering such that theinvestor will receive the same effective price per share as the investors in any such future offering, however the Company has not sold itscommon stock at a valuation of less than $10,000,000 since the inception of this agreement. Pursuant to the subscription agreement, theCompany agreed to file a registration statement to register the shares of common stock sold in the offering within five months after the finalclosing and seek to have the registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within six months of the filingor else incur penalties, however the Company was unable to meet this timeline. The Company received waivers from all shareholders except forone pursuant to the registration rights. We expect to pay the one investor who did not waive its registration rights approximately $1,500 inpenalties. The offer and sale of the units were made in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded under Section 4(a)(2) of theSecurities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. The unit offering was not conducted in connection with a public offering,and no public solicitation or advertisement was made or relied upon by the investors in connection with the unit offering.In connection with the offering we paid a registered broker dealer a commission of $47,500, and we issued warrants to purchase 31,667shares of our common stock with a strike price of $1.50 per share for 5 years from June 30, 2017, with a fair value of $36,922.Initial Public OfferingThe Company entered into subscription agreements for the initial public offing (“IPO”) and sold, on a best efforts basis, 1,020,820shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a per share purchase price of $8.00 per share (including subscription agreements withinsiders of the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $416,000). In connection with the IPO, the Company received gross proceeds of$8,166,560 before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. Univest Securities, LLC (“Univest”) served as the lead placementagent for the IPO and WallachBeth Capital, LLC and WestPark Capital, Inc. were coplacement agents (Univest, Wallach Beth Capital, LLC andWestPark Capital, Inc. are collectively referred to as the Placement Agents”). In connection with the IPO, the Company paid the PlacementAgents $571,659 in commissions and reimbursed Univest for its outofpocket expenses.The Company also agreed to pay Univest an advisory fee of $30,000 upon the closing of the IPO. The fees and expenses paid to thePlacement Agents were paid pursuant to the certain Placement Agent Agreement (the “Placement Agent Agreement”) between the Companyand Univest dated November 16, 2018.A registration statement relating to the IPO was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and was declared effectiveby the SEC as of December 19, 2018.The Company also issued the Placement Agents warrants to purchase 40,833 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exerciseprice of $9.60 per share, which warrants are exercisable from time to time, in whole or in part, during the fiveyear period commencing six monthsfrom the effective date Effectiveness Date. If there is no effective registration statement registering the shares of common stock that thewarrants may be exercisable into, then the warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis.67Table of ContentsOn February 4, 2019, the Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “INMB”.Results of OperationsComparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017Year EndedDecember 31,2018December 31,2017ChangeChange$$$%General and Administrative$11,334,634$546,118$10,788,9481,975%Research and Development1,105,389435,362680,027160%Other Income(149,994)(149,994)(100)%Net loss$(12,440,023)$(831,486)$11,618,537General and AdministrativeOperating expenses were $11,334,634 for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $546,118 for the year ended December 31,2017. The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019. We anticipate our cash andcash equivalents (including the proceeds from our February 2019 IPO will last through December 31, 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.At December 31, 2018, we had a cash balance of $186,204, and $1,370,711 as of December 31, 2017. The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017. The decrease in our working capital was mainly due to the usage of cash inconnection with our clinical trials, and due to the usage of cash in connection with legal, accounting and consulting efforts in anticipation ofbecoming a public company.Cash FlowsThe following table provides information regarding our cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:Year EndedDecember 31,20182017Net cash used in operating activities$(2,058,994)$(761,834)Net cash used in investing activities(100,000)Net cash provided by financing activities900,0002,056,000Impact on cash from foreign currency translation(25,513)34,886Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents$(1,184,507)$1,229,052Net Cash Used in Operating ActivitiesThe Company used cash of $2,058,994 and $761,834 in operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017,respectively.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures.

The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019.

The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OFEQUITY SECURITIESCommon StockOur common stock began trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol “INMB” on February 4, 2019. Prior to that, there was no publicmarket for our common stock. As a result, we have not set forth quarterly information with respect to the high and low prices for our commonstock for the two most recent fiscal years or provided a performance graph.As of March 25, 2019, there were 9,740,261 shares of our common stock outstanding held by approximately 63 holders of record.Sales of Unregistered SecuritiesOn May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company recorded $4,626,000of stockbased compensation expense during the year ended December 31, 2018 for the 600,000 shares of common stock to be issued.During the year ended December 31, 2018, to complete a series of funding provided for in the Company’s joint development agreementdated September 3, 2016, the Company received $900,000 in cash from Luminus in exchange for 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.Luminus is owned by a significant shareholder of the Company.In connection with the foregoing, we relied upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of1933, as amended, for transactions not involving a public offering.Purchases of Equity Securities by the IssuerThere were no repurchases of our common stock during the year ended December 31, 2018.58Table of ContentsEquity Compensation Plan InformationAs of December 31, 2018, all compensation based on our equity was awarded under the INmune Bio, Inc. 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the“2017 Plan”).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, Immune Ventures assigned all of its rights, obligations and liabilities under the Exclusive LicenseAgreement between the University of Pittsburgh – Of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education and Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, the Company agreed to convert the amount Immune Ventures paid of $162,634 into shares of theCompany’s common stock valued at $7.71 per share, based on the per share value of the shares issued to Xencor, for 21,094 shares for thereimbursement of amounts paid by the Assignor to the University of Pittsburgh, which the Company recorded as stockbased compensationwithin research and development expense. These shares were issued on December 31, 2017.During 2017, the Company issued fully vested warrants to purchase 31,667 shares of the Company’s common stock to a third party inconjunction with the common stock sold for cash, with an exercise price of $1.50 per share, maturity date of June 30, 2022, and fair value of$36,922 using the BlackScholes optionpricing model, which were recorded as stockbased compensation.During March 2018, the CEO and CFO were each granted an option to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a$7.80 exercise price. Onethird of the options vested on January 1, 2018 and the remainder shall vest on a monthly basis over a 24 month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $5,115,693 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.During March 2018, a board member was granted 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a $7.80 exercise price. Theseoptions vest over a 24month term. The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,557,847 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricingmodel.During April 2018, the Company granted options to purchase 108,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to each of four Boardmembers, of which 3,000 options shall vest monthly. The options have a 10year term and a $7.80 exercise price and vest over a 36month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,743,894 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.On May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. The Company recorded stockbased compensation based onthe Company’s estimate of the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of the issuance date, which the Company estimated using the thirdparty valuation it obtained in connection with the acquisition of the Xencor license which valued the Company’s common stock at $7.71 pershare.OffBalance Sheet ArrangementsDuring the periods presented, we did not have any offbalance sheet arrangements as defined under SEC rules.Licensing and Collaboration AgreementsWe anticipate that inlicensing, outlicensing and strategic collaborations will become an integral part of our operations, providing thecompany with opportunities to leverage our partners’ expertise and capabilities to further expand the potential of our technologies, productcandidates and revenue streams.66Table of ContentsXencorIn October 2017, we licensed INB03, also known as XPro1595, from Xencor. This exclusive, global, unrestricted license came withconsiderable knowhow, intellectual property, preclinical data, regulatory documentation and product stocks. Currently, we are focused on theimmuneoncology uses of this unique asset. In the future, we may develop the asset in a wide variety of therapeutic areas, with a variety ofdelivery techniques by ourselves or in conjunction with partners.Unit OfferingIn June 2017, the Company completed a private placement in which we sold 1,393,335 of units to accredited investors at a per unit priceof $10,000 with each unit consisting of 6,667 shares of our common stock, and received net proceeds of approximately $2,056,000, net ofissuance costs of $34,000. Pursuant to the subscription agreement between the Company and the investors of the offering, for a period of twoyears from June 30, 2017, if the Company sells shares of common stock or the right to receive common stock at a price per share which valuesthe Company at less than $10,000,000, the Company will issue additional shares of common stock to each investor in the offering such that theinvestor will receive the same effective price per share as the investors in any such future offering, however the Company has not sold itscommon stock at a valuation of less than $10,000,000 since the inception of this agreement. Pursuant to the subscription agreement, theCompany agreed to file a registration statement to register the shares of common stock sold in the offering within five months after the finalclosing and seek to have the registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within six months of the filingor else incur penalties, however the Company was unable to meet this timeline. The Company received waivers from all shareholders except forone pursuant to the registration rights. We expect to pay the one investor who did not waive its registration rights approximately $1,500 inpenalties. The offer and sale of the units were made in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded under Section 4(a)(2) of theSecurities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. The unit offering was not conducted in connection with a public offering,and no public solicitation or advertisement was made or relied upon by the investors in connection with the unit offering.In connection with the offering we paid a registered broker dealer a commission of $47,500, and we issued warrants to purchase 31,667shares of our common stock with a strike price of $1.50 per share for 5 years from June 30, 2017, with a fair value of $36,922.Initial Public OfferingThe Company entered into subscription agreements for the initial public offing (“IPO”) and sold, on a best efforts basis, 1,020,820shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a per share purchase price of $8.00 per share (including subscription agreements withinsiders of the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $416,000). In connection with the IPO, the Company received gross proceeds of$8,166,560 before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. Univest Securities, LLC (“Univest”) served as the lead placementagent for the IPO and WallachBeth Capital, LLC and WestPark Capital, Inc. were coplacement agents (Univest, Wallach Beth Capital, LLC andWestPark Capital, Inc. are collectively referred to as the Placement Agents”). In connection with the IPO, the Company paid the PlacementAgents $571,659 in commissions and reimbursed Univest for its outofpocket expenses.The Company also agreed to pay Univest an advisory fee of $30,000 upon the closing of the IPO. The fees and expenses paid to thePlacement Agents were paid pursuant to the certain Placement Agent Agreement (the “Placement Agent Agreement”) between the Companyand Univest dated November 16, 2018.A registration statement relating to the IPO was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and was declared effectiveby the SEC as of December 19, 2018.The Company also issued the Placement Agents warrants to purchase 40,833 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exerciseprice of $9.60 per share, which warrants are exercisable from time to time, in whole or in part, during the fiveyear period commencing six monthsfrom the effective date Effectiveness Date. If there is no effective registration statement registering the shares of common stock that thewarrants may be exercisable into, then the warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis.67Table of ContentsOn February 4, 2019, the Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “INMB”.Results of OperationsComparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017Year EndedDecember 31,2018December 31,2017ChangeChange$$$%General and Administrative$11,334,634$546,118$10,788,9481,975%Research and Development1,105,389435,362680,027160%Other Income(149,994)(149,994)(100)%Net loss$(12,440,023)$(831,486)$11,618,537General and AdministrativeOperating expenses were $11,334,634 for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $546,118 for the year ended December 31,2017. The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019. We anticipate our cash andcash equivalents (including the proceeds from our February 2019 IPO will last through December 31, 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.At December 31, 2018, we had a cash balance of $186,204, and $1,370,711 as of December 31, 2017. The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017. The decrease in our working capital was mainly due to the usage of cash inconnection with our clinical trials, and due to the usage of cash in connection with legal, accounting and consulting efforts in anticipation ofbecoming a public company.Cash FlowsThe following table provides information regarding our cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:Year EndedDecember 31,20182017Net cash used in operating activities$(2,058,994)$(761,834)Net cash used in investing activities(100,000)Net cash provided by financing activities900,0002,056,000Impact on cash from foreign currency translation(25,513)34,886Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents$(1,184,507)$1,229,052Net Cash Used in Operating ActivitiesThe Company used cash of $2,058,994 and $761,834 in operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017,respectively.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures.

The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019.

The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OFEQUITY SECURITIESCommon StockOur common stock began trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol “INMB” on February 4, 2019. Prior to that, there was no publicmarket for our common stock. As a result, we have not set forth quarterly information with respect to the high and low prices for our commonstock for the two most recent fiscal years or provided a performance graph.As of March 25, 2019, there were 9,740,261 shares of our common stock outstanding held by approximately 63 holders of record.Sales of Unregistered SecuritiesOn May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company recorded $4,626,000of stockbased compensation expense during the year ended December 31, 2018 for the 600,000 shares of common stock to be issued.During the year ended December 31, 2018, to complete a series of funding provided for in the Company’s joint development agreementdated September 3, 2016, the Company received $900,000 in cash from Luminus in exchange for 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.Luminus is owned by a significant shareholder of the Company.In connection with the foregoing, we relied upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of1933, as amended, for transactions not involving a public offering.Purchases of Equity Securities by the IssuerThere were no repurchases of our common stock during the year ended December 31, 2018.58Table of ContentsEquity Compensation Plan InformationAs of December 31, 2018, all compensation based on our equity was awarded under the INmune Bio, Inc. 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the“2017 Plan”).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, Immune Ventures assigned all of its rights, obligations and liabilities under the Exclusive LicenseAgreement between the University of Pittsburgh – Of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education and Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, the Company agreed to convert the amount Immune Ventures paid of $162,634 into shares of theCompany’s common stock valued at $7.71 per share, based on the per share value of the shares issued to Xencor, for 21,094 shares for thereimbursement of amounts paid by the Assignor to the University of Pittsburgh, which the Company recorded as stockbased compensationwithin research and development expense. These shares were issued on December 31, 2017.During 2017, the Company issued fully vested warrants to purchase 31,667 shares of the Company’s common stock to a third party inconjunction with the common stock sold for cash, with an exercise price of $1.50 per share, maturity date of June 30, 2022, and fair value of$36,922 using the BlackScholes optionpricing model, which were recorded as stockbased compensation.During March 2018, the CEO and CFO were each granted an option to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a$7.80 exercise price. Onethird of the options vested on January 1, 2018 and the remainder shall vest on a monthly basis over a 24 month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $5,115,693 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.During March 2018, a board member was granted 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a $7.80 exercise price. Theseoptions vest over a 24month term. The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,557,847 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricingmodel.During April 2018, the Company granted options to purchase 108,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to each of four Boardmembers, of which 3,000 options shall vest monthly. The options have a 10year term and a $7.80 exercise price and vest over a 36month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,743,894 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.On May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. The Company recorded stockbased compensation based onthe Company’s estimate of the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of the issuance date, which the Company estimated using the thirdparty valuation it obtained in connection with the acquisition of the Xencor license which valued the Company’s common stock at $7.71 pershare.OffBalance Sheet ArrangementsDuring the periods presented, we did not have any offbalance sheet arrangements as defined under SEC rules.Licensing and Collaboration AgreementsWe anticipate that inlicensing, outlicensing and strategic collaborations will become an integral part of our operations, providing thecompany with opportunities to leverage our partners’ expertise and capabilities to further expand the potential of our technologies, productcandidates and revenue streams.66Table of ContentsXencorIn October 2017, we licensed INB03, also known as XPro1595, from Xencor. This exclusive, global, unrestricted license came withconsiderable knowhow, intellectual property, preclinical data, regulatory documentation and product stocks. Currently, we are focused on theimmuneoncology uses of this unique asset. In the future, we may develop the asset in a wide variety of therapeutic areas, with a variety ofdelivery techniques by ourselves or in conjunction with partners.Unit OfferingIn June 2017, the Company completed a private placement in which we sold 1,393,335 of units to accredited investors at a per unit priceof $10,000 with each unit consisting of 6,667 shares of our common stock, and received net proceeds of approximately $2,056,000, net ofissuance costs of $34,000. Pursuant to the subscription agreement between the Company and the investors of the offering, for a period of twoyears from June 30, 2017, if the Company sells shares of common stock or the right to receive common stock at a price per share which valuesthe Company at less than $10,000,000, the Company will issue additional shares of common stock to each investor in the offering such that theinvestor will receive the same effective price per share as the investors in any such future offering, however the Company has not sold itscommon stock at a valuation of less than $10,000,000 since the inception of this agreement. Pursuant to the subscription agreement, theCompany agreed to file a registration statement to register the shares of common stock sold in the offering within five months after the finalclosing and seek to have the registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within six months of the filingor else incur penalties, however the Company was unable to meet this timeline. The Company received waivers from all shareholders except forone pursuant to the registration rights. We expect to pay the one investor who did not waive its registration rights approximately $1,500 inpenalties. The offer and sale of the units were made in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded under Section 4(a)(2) of theSecurities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. The unit offering was not conducted in connection with a public offering,and no public solicitation or advertisement was made or relied upon by the investors in connection with the unit offering.In connection with the offering we paid a registered broker dealer a commission of $47,500, and we issued warrants to purchase 31,667shares of our common stock with a strike price of $1.50 per share for 5 years from June 30, 2017, with a fair value of $36,922.Initial Public OfferingThe Company entered into subscription agreements for the initial public offing (“IPO”) and sold, on a best efforts basis, 1,020,820shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a per share purchase price of $8.00 per share (including subscription agreements withinsiders of the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $416,000). In connection with the IPO, the Company received gross proceeds of$8,166,560 before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. Univest Securities, LLC (“Univest”) served as the lead placementagent for the IPO and WallachBeth Capital, LLC and WestPark Capital, Inc. were coplacement agents (Univest, Wallach Beth Capital, LLC andWestPark Capital, Inc. are collectively referred to as the Placement Agents”). In connection with the IPO, the Company paid the PlacementAgents $571,659 in commissions and reimbursed Univest for its outofpocket expenses.The Company also agreed to pay Univest an advisory fee of $30,000 upon the closing of the IPO. The fees and expenses paid to thePlacement Agents were paid pursuant to the certain Placement Agent Agreement (the “Placement Agent Agreement”) between the Companyand Univest dated November 16, 2018.A registration statement relating to the IPO was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and was declared effectiveby the SEC as of December 19, 2018.The Company also issued the Placement Agents warrants to purchase 40,833 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exerciseprice of $9.60 per share, which warrants are exercisable from time to time, in whole or in part, during the fiveyear period commencing six monthsfrom the effective date Effectiveness Date. If there is no effective registration statement registering the shares of common stock that thewarrants may be exercisable into, then the warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis.67Table of ContentsOn February 4, 2019, the Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “INMB”.Results of OperationsComparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017Year EndedDecember 31,2018December 31,2017ChangeChange$$$%General and Administrative$11,334,634$546,118$10,788,9481,975%Research and Development1,105,389435,362680,027160%Other Income(149,994)(149,994)(100)%Net loss$(12,440,023)$(831,486)$11,618,537General and AdministrativeOperating expenses were $11,334,634 for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $546,118 for the year ended December 31,2017. The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019. We anticipate our cash andcash equivalents (including the proceeds from our February 2019 IPO will last through December 31, 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.At December 31, 2018, we had a cash balance of $186,204, and $1,370,711 as of December 31, 2017. The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017. The decrease in our working capital was mainly due to the usage of cash inconnection with our clinical trials, and due to the usage of cash in connection with legal, accounting and consulting efforts in anticipation ofbecoming a public company.Cash FlowsThe following table provides information regarding our cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:Year EndedDecember 31,20182017Net cash used in operating activities$(2,058,994)$(761,834)Net cash used in investing activities(100,000)Net cash provided by financing activities900,0002,056,000Impact on cash from foreign currency translation(25,513)34,886Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents$(1,184,507)$1,229,052Net Cash Used in Operating ActivitiesThe Company used cash of $2,058,994 and $761,834 in operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017,respectively.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures.

The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019.

The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingdepend in part on the ability of our licensors to obtain, maintain and enforce our licensed intellectual property. Our licensors may notsuccessfully prosecute any applications for or maintain intellectual property to which we have licenses, may determine not to pursue litigationagainst other companies that are infringing such intellectual property, or may pursue such litigation less aggressively than we would. Withoutprotection for the intellectual property we license, other companies might be able to offer similar products for sale, which could adversely affectour competitive business position and harm our business prospects. If we lose any of our right to use thirdparty intellectual property, it couldadversely affect our ability to commercialize our technologies, products or services, as well as harm our competitive business position and ourbusiness prospects.39Table of ContentsWe are dependent on our licensing agreement with Xencor and the termination of this agreement could a have an adverse effect on ourbusiness.On October 3, 2017, the Company entered into a license agreement with Xencor, Inc., which has discovered and developed a proprietarybiological molecule that inhibits soluble tumor necrosis factor. Pursuant to the license agreement, Xencor granted the Company an exclusiveworldwide, royaltybearing license in licensed patent rights, licensed knowhow and licensed materials to make, develop, use, sell and importany pharmaceutical product that comprises, contains, or incorporates Xencor’s proprietary protein known as “XPRO1595” that inhibits solubletumor necrosis factor (or all modifications, formulations and variants of the licensed protein that specifically bind soluble tumor necrosis factor)alone or in combination with one or more active ingredients, in any dosage or formulation. If we breach this Agreement Xencor may be able toterminate it and as a result of this terminate our business could be negatively impacted.Our officers and Directors own the company that we license our principal patent from.On October 29, 2015, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Immune Ventures, LLC, the owner of all of the rights related toour principal patent. The license agreement relates to our natural killer program, INKmue. Immune Ventures is owned by our President and amember of our Board of Directors, David Moss, our Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Mark Lowdell, our Chief Scientific Officer.Because our officers and directors also own Immune Ventures there may be an inherent conflict of interest which could result in unanticipatedactions that adversely affect us.We have a limited operating history, and expect to incur significant additional operating losses.We are an early stage company formed in September 2015 and have only a limited operating history. Therefore, there is limited historicalfinancial information upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Our prospects must be considered in light of the uncertainties, risks,expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of operations. We expect to incur substantial additionaloperating expenses over the next several years as our research, development, and commercial activities increase. The amount of future lossesand when, if ever, we will achieve profitability are uncertain. Our ability to generate revenue and achieve profitability will depend on, amongother things, successful completion of the preclinical and clinical development of our product candidate; obtaining necessary regulatoryapprovals from the FDA and international regulatory agencies; implementing successful manufacturing, sales, and marketing arrangements; andraising sufficient funds to finance our activities. If we are unsuccessful at some or all of these undertakings, our business, prospects, andresults of operations may be materially adversely affected.INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment that creates significant challenges for us.We believe INKmune represents a novel approach to cancer treatment. Advancing this novel therapy creates significant challenges forus, including:·Educating medical personnel regarding the potential side effect profile of INKmune;·Sourcing clinical and, if approved, commercial supplies for the materials used to manufacture and process our product candidates;·Obtaining regulatory approval, as the FDA and other regulatory authorities have limited experience with commercial development ofimmunotherapies for cancer; and·Establishing sales and marketing capabilities upon obtaining any regulatory approval to gain market acceptance of a novel therapy.40Table of ContentsEven if we are able to commercialize any product candidate that we develop, the product may become subject to unfavorable pricingregulations, thirdparty payor reimbursement practices or healthcare reform initiatives that could harm our business.The commercial success of our product candidates will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which thecosts of our product candidates will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare managementorganizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities (such as Medicare and Medicaid), private health coverageinsurers and other thirdparty payors. If reimbursement is not available, or is available only to limited levels, we may not be able to successfullycommercialize our product candidates. Even if coverage is provided, the approved reimbursement amount may not be high enough to allow usto establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment.There is significant uncertainty related to thirdparty payor coverage and reimbursement of newly approved drugs. Marketingapprovals, pricing and reimbursement for new drug products vary widely from country to country. Some countries require approval of the saleprice of a drug before it can be marketed. In many countries, the pricing review period begins after marketing or product licensing approval isgranted. In some nonU.S. markets, prescription pharmaceutical pricing remains subject to continuing governmental control even after initialapproval is granted. As a result, we might obtain marketing approval for a product in a particular country, but then be subject to priceregulations that delay commercial launch of the product, possibly for lengthy time periods, which may negatively impact the revenues we areable to generate from the sale of the product in that country. Adverse pricing limitations may hinder our ability to recoup our investment in oneor more product candidates, even if our product candidates obtain marketing approval.We depend on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on theproprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We have filed and are actively pursuing a patent application forour product candidates. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain andinvolve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that our patent application will result in the issuance of a patent,that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us will provide us with any competitiveadvantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that thirdparties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similarproducts, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products wedeveloped or will develop.We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can begiven that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. Ifwe do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture orsale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited.A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and research and academic institutions have developedtechnologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of thesetechnologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of thepatents, if any, that we may be able to obtain or result in the denial of our patent applications. In addition, if patents that cover our activities areissued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be ableto develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products, orcould find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incursubstantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us on patents it might infringe or in filing suits against others to have suchpatents declared invalid.41Table of ContentsMuch of our knowhow and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we plan to require employees, consultants,advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will providemeaningful protection for our trade secrets, knowhow or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure.Further, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no,or only narrow, patent protection.We are subject to various government regulations.The manufacture and sale of human therapeutic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes andregulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review andapproval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing thesafety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current cGMP during production and storage, and control ofmarketing activities, including advertising and labeling.The products we are currently developing will require significant development, preclinical and clinical testing and investment ofsubstantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and timeconsuming, and there canbe no assurance that we develop successfully this product or any future products, or that this product or any future products we develop willprove to be safe and effective in clinical trials or receive applicable regulatory approvals. Potential investors and shareholders should be awareof the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which controlsour business.If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products and therapies that will compete directly with the product that we areseeking to develop and market currently exist or are being developed. Competition from fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and moreestablished biotechnology companies is intense and is expected to increase. Most of these companies have significantly greater financialresources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals andmarketing than us. Smaller companies may also prove to be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with largepharmaceutical and established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have significant products that havebeen approved or are in development and operate large, wellfunded discovery and development programs. Academic institutions,governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establishcollaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with usin recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition basedon product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability,reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or moreaffordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.Other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than ourselves, obtaining FDA and European Medicines Agency(“EMA”) approvals for such products more rapidly than we will, or in developing products that are more effective than products we propose todevelop. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research anddevelopment by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or noncompetitive or result in treatments or cures superior to anytherapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.42Table of ContentsWe may request priority review for our product candidate in the future. The FDA may not grant priority review for our product candidate.Moreover, even if the FDA designates such product for priority review, that designation may not lead to a faster regulatory review orapproval process and, in any event, would not assure FDA approval.We may be eligible for priority review designation for our product candidate if the FDA determines such product candidate offers majoradvances in treatment or provides a treatment where no adequate therapy exists. A priority review designation means that the goal for the FDAto review an application in six months, rather than the standard review period of ten months. The FDA has broad discretion with respect towhether or not to grant priority review status to a product candidate, so even if we believe a particular product candidate is eligible for suchdesignation or status, the FDA may decide not to grant it. Thus, while the FDA has granted priority review to other oncology disease products,our product candidate, should we determine to seek priority review, may not receive similar designation. Moreover, even if our productcandidate is designated for priority review, such a designation does not necessarily mean a faster regulatory review process or necessarilyconfer any advantage with respect to approval compared to conventional FDA procedures. Receiving priority review from the FDA does notguarantee approval within an accelerated timeline or thereafter.We believe we may in some instances be able to secure approval from the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities to useaccelerated development pathways. If we are unable to obtain such approval, we may be required to conduct additional preclinical studiesor clinical trials beyond those that we contemplate, which could increase the expense of obtaining, and delay the receipt of, necessarymarketing approvals.We anticipate that we may seek an accelerated approval pathway for our product candidates. Under the accelerated approvalprovisions in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and the FDA’s implementing regulations, the FDA may grant acceleratedapproval to a product designed to treat a serious or lifethreatening condition that provides meaningful therapeutic benefit over availabletherapies upon a determination that the product has an effect on a surrogate endpoint or intermediate clinical endpoint that is reasonably likelyto predict clinical benefit. The FDA considers a clinical benefit to be a positive therapeutic effect that is clinically meaningful in the context of agiven disease, such as irreversible morbidity or mortality. For the purposes of accelerated approval, a surrogate endpoint is a marker, such as alaboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign, or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measureof clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than an effect on irreversible morbidity ormortality that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on irreversible morbidity or mortality or other clinical benefit. The accelerated approvalpathway may be used in cases in which the advantage of a new drug over available therapy may not be a direct therapeutic advantage, but is aclinically important improvement from a patient and public health perspective. If granted, accelerated approval is usually contingent on thesponsor’s agreement to conduct, in a diligent manner, additional postapproval confirmatory studies to verify and describe the drug’s clinicalbenefit. If such postapproval studies fail to confirm the drug’s clinical benefit, the FDA may withdraw its approval of the drug.Prior to seeking such accelerated approval, we will seek feedback from the FDA and will otherwise evaluate our ability to seek andreceive such accelerated approval. There can be no assurance that after our evaluation of the feedback and other factors we will decide topursue or submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval.Similarly, there can be no assurance that after subsequent FDA feedback we will continue to pursue or apply for accelerated approval or anyother form of expedited development, review or approval, even if we initially decide to do so. Furthermore, if we decide to submit an applicationfor accelerated approval or under another expedited regulatory designation (e.g., breakthrough therapy designation), there can be no assurancethat such submission or application will be accepted or that any expedited development, review or approval will be granted on a timely basis, orat all. The FDA or other nonU.S. authorities could also require us to conduct further studies prior to considering our application or grantingapproval of any type. A failure to obtain accelerated approval or any other form of expedited development, review or approval for our productcandidate would result in a longer time period to commercialization of such product candidate, could increase the cost of development of suchproduct candidate and could harm our competitive position in the marketplace.43Table of ContentsClinical drug development involves a lengthy and expensive process with an uncertain outcome. We may incur additional costs orexperience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidate.Our product candidates have not entered into clinical trials and are in development stage. Therefore, the risk of failure of our productcandidates is high. It is impossible to predict when or if our product candidates will prove effective or safe in humans or will receive regulatoryapproval. Before obtaining marketing approval from regulatory authorities for the sale of any product candidate, we must complete preclinicaldevelopment and then conduct extensive clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate in humans. Clinicaltesting is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is uncertain as to outcome. A failure of one or moreclinical trials can occur at any stage of testing. The clinical development of our product candidates is susceptible to the risk of failure inherent atany stage of drug development, including failure to demonstrate efficacy in a clinical trial or across a broad population of patients, theoccurrence of severe or medically or commercially unacceptable adverse events, failure to comply with protocols or applicable regulatoryrequirements and determination by the FDA or any comparable nonU.S. regulatory authority that a drug product is not safe or effective for itsintended uses. It is possible that even if our product candidate has a beneficial effect, that effect will not be detected during clinical evaluationas a result of one or more of a variety of factors, including the size, duration, design, measurements, conduct or analysis of our clinical trials.Conversely, as a result of the same factors, our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater thanthe actual positive effect, if any. Similarly, in our clinical trials we may fail to detect toxicity of or intolerability caused by our product candidates,or mistakenly believe that our product candidates are toxic or not well tolerated when that is not in fact the case.The outcome of preclinical studies and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim resultsof a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results. Many companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries have sufferedsignificant setbacks in latestage clinical trials after achieving positive results in earlier development, and we cannot be certain that we will notface additional setbacks.The design of a clinical trial can determine whether its results will support approval of a product; however, flaws in the design of aclinical trial may not become apparent until the clinical trial is well advanced or completed. In addition, preclinical and clinical data are oftensusceptible to varying interpretations and analyses. Many companies that believed their product candidates performed satisfactorily inpreclinical studies and clinical trials have nonetheless failed to obtain marketing approval for the product candidates. Even if we believe that theresults of clinical trials for our product candidate warrant marketing approval, the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities maydisagree and may not grant marketing approval of our product candidate.In some instances, there can be significant variability in safety or efficacy results between different clinical trials of the same productcandidate due to numerous factors, including changes in trial procedures set forth in protocols, differences in the size and type of the patientpopulations, changes in and adherence to the clinical trial protocols and the rate of dropout among clinical trial participants. Any clinical trialsthat we may conduct may not demonstrate the efficacy and safety necessary to obtain regulatory approval to market our product candidate.If clinical trials of our product candidate fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable nonU.S.regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete, the development andcommercialization of our product candidate.We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketingapproval from the FDA. Comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities, such as the EMA, impose similar restrictions. We may never receive suchapprovals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our productcandidate in humans before we will be able to obtain these approvals.Clinical testing is expensive, difficult to design and implement, can take many years to complete and is inherently uncertain as tooutcome. We have not previously submitted an NDA to the FDA or similar drug approval filings to comparable nonU.S. regulatory authoritiesfor any product candidate.44Table of ContentsAny inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our abilityto generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required toconduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing than we contemplate, (2) we are unableto successfully complete clinical trials of our product candidate or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertainor are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with our product candidate, we, in addition to incurringadditional costs, may:·be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidate;·not obtain marketing approval at all;·obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;·obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxedwarnings;·be subject to additional postmarketing testing or other requirements; or·be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.If we experience any of a number of possible unforeseen events in connection with clinical trials of any of our product candidates, potentialmarketing approval or commercialization of that product candidate could be delayed or prevented.We may experience numerous unforeseen events during, or as a result of, clinical trials that could delay or prevent marketing approval of any ofour product candidates, including:·clinical trials of our product candidate may produce unfavorable or inconclusive results;·we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical trials or abandon product development programs;·the number of patients required for clinical trials of our product candidate may be larger than we anticipate, patient enrollment inthese clinical trials may be slower than we anticipate or participants may drop out of these clinical trials at a higher rate than weanticipate;·data safety monitoring committees may recommend suspension, termination or a clinical hold for various reasons, includingconcerns about patient safety;·regulators or institutional review boards, or IRBs, may suspend or terminate the trial or impose a clinical hold for various reasons,including noncompliance with regulatory requirements or concerns about patient safety;·patients with serious, lifethreatening diseases included in our clinical trials may die or suffer other adverse medical events forreasons that may not be related to our product candidate;·participating patients may be subject to unacceptable health risks;·patients may not complete clinical trials due to safety issues, side effects, or other reasons;·changes in regulatory requirements and guidance may occur, which require us to amend clinical trial protocols to reflect thesechanges;·our thirdparty contractors, including those manufacturing our product candidate or components or ingredients thereof orconducting clinical trials on our behalf, may fail to comply with regulatory requirements or meet their contractual obligations to us ina timely manner or at all;45Table of Contents·regulators or IRBs may not authorize us or our investigators to commence a clinical trial or conduct a clinical trial at a prospectivetrial site;·we may experience delays in reaching or fail to reach agreement on acceptable clinical trial contracts or clinical trial protocols withprospective trial sites;·patients who enroll in a clinical trial may misrepresent their eligibility to do so or may otherwise not comply with the clinical trialprotocol, resulting in the need to drop the patients from the clinical trial, increase the needed enrollment size for the clinical trial orextend the clinical trial’s duration;·we may have to suspend or terminate clinical trials of our product candidate for various reasons, including a finding that theparticipants are being exposed to unacceptable health risks, undesirable side effects or other unexpected characteristics of a productcandidate;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may disagree with our clinical trial design or our interpretation of data frompreclinical studies and clinical trials;·the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may fail to approve or subsequently find fault with the manufacturingprocesses or facilities of thirdparty manufacturers with which we enter into agreements for clinical and commercial supplies;·the supply or quality of raw materials or manufactured product candidate or other materials necessary to conduct clinical trials of ourproduct candidate may be insufficient, inadequate, delayed, or not available at an acceptable cost, or we may experienceinterruptions in supply; and·the approval policies or regulations of the FDA or comparable nonU.S. regulatory authorities may significantly change in a mannerrendering our clinical data insufficient to obtain marketing approval.Product development costs for us will increase if we experience delays in testing or pursuing marketing approvals and we may berequired to obtain additional funds to complete clinical trials and prepare for possible commercialization of our product candidates. We do notknow whether any preclinical tests or clinical trials will begin as planned, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, or at all.Significant preclinical or clinical trial delays also could shorten any periods during which we may have the exclusive right to commercialize ourproduct candidates or allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do and impair our ability to successfully commercialize ourproduct candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. In addition, many of the factors that cause, or lead to, clinical trialdelays may ultimately lead to the denial of marketing approval of our product candidates.If we experience delays or difficulties in the enrollment of patients in clinical trials, we may not achieve our clinical development on ouranticipated timeline, or at all, and our receipt of necessary regulatory approvals could be delayed or prevented.We may not be able to initiate or continue clinical trials for INKmune or any other product candidate if we are unable to locate andenroll a sufficient number of eligible patients to participate in clinical trials. Patient enrollment is a significant factor in the timing of clinical trials,and is affected by many factors, including:·the size and nature of the patient population;·the severity of the disease under investigation;·the proximity of patients to clinical sites;·the eligibility criteria for the trial;·the design of the clinical trial;·efforts to facilitate timely enrollment;·competing clinical trials; and·clinicians’ and patients’ perceptions as to the potential advantages and risks of the drug being studied in relation to other availabletherapies, including any new drugs that may be approved for the indications we are investigating.46Table of ContentsOur inability to enroll a sufficient number of patients for our clinical trials could result in significant delays or may require us toabandon one or more clinical trials altogether. Enrollment delays in our clinical trials may result in increased development costs for our productcandidates, delay or halt the development of and approval processes for our product candidates and jeopardize our ability to achieve ourclinical development timeline and goals, including the dates by which we will commence, complete and receive results from clinical trials.Enrollment delays may also delay or jeopardize our ability to commence sales and generate revenues from our product candidates. Any of theforegoing could cause the value of the Company to decline and limit our ability to obtain additional financing, if needed.We will need to obtain FDA approval of any proposed product brand names, and any failure or delay associated with such approval mayadversely impact our business.A pharmaceutical product cannot be marketed in the U.S. or other countries until we have completed rigorous and extensive regulatoryreview processes, including approval of a brand name. Any brand names we intend to use for our product candidates will require approval fromthe FDA regardless of whether we have secured a formal trademark registration from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or the USPTO. TheFDA typically conducts a review of proposed product brand names, including an evaluation of potential for confusion with other productnames. The FDA may also object to a product brand name if it believes the name inappropriately implies medical claims. If the FDA objects toany of our proposed product brand names, we may be required to adopt an alternative brand name for our product candidates. If we adopt analternative brand name, we would lose the benefit of our existing trademark applications for such product candidate and may be required toexpend significant additional resources in an effort to identify a suitable product brand name that would qualify under applicable trademarklaws, not infringe the existing rights of third parties and be acceptable to the FDA. We may be unable to build a successful brand identity for anew trademark in a timely manner or at all, which would limit our ability to commercialize our product candidates.We may rely on orphan drug status to develop and commercialize our product candidates, but orphan drug designation, if obtained, maynot confer marketing exclusivity or other expected commercial benefits as anticipated.Market exclusivity afforded by orphan drug designation is generally offered as an incentive to drug developers to invest in developingand commercializing products for unique diseases that impact a limited number of patients. The FDA may grant orphan drug designation todrugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in theUnited States. Qualification to maintain orphan drug status is generally monitored by the regulatory authorities during the orphan drugexclusivity period, currently seven years from the date of approval in the United States.We intend to seek orphan drug designation in the United States for our product candidate for the treatment of AML and ovarian cancerand we expect to rely on orphan drug exclusivity for our product candidate. Even if granted, orphan drug designation, and related marketexclusivity, in the United States could be lost. Further, even if we are granted orphan drug status, the FDA can still approve different drugs foruse in treating the same indication or disease, which would create a more competitive market for us and our revenues will be diminished.47Table of ContentsFurther, for our product candidate, it is possible that another company also holding orphan drug designation for the same productcandidate will receive marketing approval for the same indication before we do. If that were to happen, our applications for that indication maynot be approved until the competing company’s period of exclusivity expires. Even if we are the first to obtain marketing authorization for anorphan drug indication, there are circumstances under which a competing product may be approved for the same indication during the sevenyear period of marketing exclusivity, such as if the later product is shown to be clinically superior to the orphan product, or if the later product isdeemed a different product than ours. Further, the sevenyear marketing exclusivity would not prevent competitors from obtaining approval ofthe same product candidate as ours for indications other than those in which we have been granted orphan drug designation, or for the use ofother types of products in the same indications as our orphan product.If the market opportunities for our product candidate are smaller than we believe they are, our revenues may be adversely affected and ourbusiness may suffer. Because the target patient populations of our product candidate are small, we must be able to successfully identifypatients and capture a significant market share to achieve and maintain profitability.We focus our research and product development on treatments for certain cancer indications. Our projections of both the number ofpeople who have failed other therapies or have limited medical options for such indications, are based on estimates. These estimates may proveto be incorrect and new studies may change the estimated incidence or prevalence. The number of patients with such diseases in the UnitedStates, Europe and elsewhere may turn out to be lower than expected or may not be otherwise amenable to treatment with our products, or newpatients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, all of which would adversely affect our results of operations and ourbusiness. Additionally, because our target patient populations are small, we will be required to capture a significant market share to achieve andmaintain profitability.We may fail to comply with regulatory requirements.Our success will be dependent upon our ability, and our collaborative partners’ abilities, to maintain compliance with regulatoryrequirements, including cGMP, and safety reporting obligations. The failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in,among other things, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, total or partial suspension of regulatory approvals, refusal to approve pendingapplications, recalls or seizures of products, operating and production restrictions and criminal prosecutions.Even if our product candidate receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the productcandidate may be smaller than we estimate.We have never commercialized a product. Even if INKmune, INB03 or any other product candidate we develop is approved by theappropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, it may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance by physicians, patients,thirdparty payors and others in the medical community. For example, physicians are often reluctant to switch their patients from existingtherapies even when new and potentially more effective or convenient treatments enter the market. Further, patients often acclimate to thetherapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch unless their physicians recommend switching products or they are required toswitch therapies due to lack of reimbursement for existing therapies.Efforts to educate the medical community and thirdparty payors on the benefits of our product candidate may require significantresources and may not be successful. If our product candidate is approved but does not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, wemay not generate significant revenues and we may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of INmune or any other productcandidate we develop, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:48Table of Contents·the efficacy and safety of the product;·the potential advantages of the product compared to alternative treatments;·the prevalence and severity of any side effects;·the clinical indications for which the product is approved;·whether the product is designated under physician treatment guidelines as a firstline therapy or as a second or thirdline therapy;·limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in the product’s approved labeling;·our ability to offer the product for sale at competitive prices;·our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;·the product’s convenience and ease of administration compared to alternative treatments;·the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, the product;·the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;·the approval of other new products for the same indications;·changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for the product;·the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;·availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other thirdparty payors;·adverse publicity about the product or favorable publicity about competitive products; and·potential product liability claims.The potential market opportunities for our product candidate are difficult to estimate precisely. Our estimates of the potential marketopportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, thirdparty research reports and othersurveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on thepart of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independentsource. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our product candidate could be smaller than our estimates ofthe potential market opportunities.Even if we obtain regulatory approvals for INKmune and/or INB03, those approvals and ongoing regulation of our products may limit howwe manufacture and market our products, which could prevent us from realizing the full benefit of our efforts.If we obtain regulatory approvals, INKmune and/or INB03 therapy, and the manufacturing facilities used for its production will besubject to continual review, including periodic inspections, by the FDA and other United States and foreign regulatory authorities. In addition,regulatory authorities may impose significant restrictions on the indicated uses or marketing of INKmune or other products that we maydevelop. These and other factors may significantly restrict our ability to successfully commercialize INKmune.We and many of our vendors and suppliers will be required to comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices, or GMP, whichinclude requirements relating to quality control and quality assurance as well as to the corresponding maintenance of records anddocumentation. Furthermore, any manufacturing facilities will need to be approved by regulatory agencies before these facilities can be used tomanufacture INKmune, and they will also be subject to additional regulatory inspections. Any material changes we may make to ourmanufacturing process may require approval by the FDA and state or foreign regulatory authorities. Failure to comply with FDA or otherapplicable regulatory requirements may result in criminal prosecution, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, partial or total suspension ofproduction or withdrawal of a product from the market.49Table of ContentsWe must also report adverse events that occur when our products are used. The discovery of previously unknown problems withINKMune, INB03 or manufacturing facilities used to manufacture INKmune or INB03 may result in restrictions or sanctions on our products ormanufacturing facilities, including withdrawal of our products from the market. Regulatory agencies may also require us to reformulate ourproducts, conduct additional clinical trials, make changes in the labeling of our product or obtain reapprovals. This may cause our reputation inthe market place to suffer or subject us to lawsuits, including class action suits.If our product candidate receives marketing approval and we, or others, later discover that the drug is less effective than previouslybelieved or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified, our ability to market the drug could be compromised.Clinical trials of our product candidate will be conducted in carefully defined subsets of patients who have agreed to enter into clinicaltrials. Consequently, it is possible that our clinical trials may indicate an apparent positive effect of a product candidate that is greater than theactual positive effect, if any, or alternatively fail to identify undesirable side effects. If, following approval of our product candidate, we, orothers, discover that the drug is less effective than previously believed or causes undesirable side effects that were not previously identified,any of the following adverse events could occur:·regulatory authorities may withdraw their approval of the drug or seize the drug;·we may be required to recall the drug or change the way the drug is administered;·additional restrictions may be imposed on the marketing of, or the manufacturing processes for, the particular drug;·we may be subject to fines, injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties;·regulatory authorities may require the addition of labeling statements, such as a “black box” warning or a contraindication;·we may be required to create a Medication Guide outlining the risks of the previously unidentified side effects for distribution topatients;·we could be sued and held liable for harm caused to patients;·the drug may become less competitive; and·our reputation may suffer.Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations and business.Any product candidate for which we obtain marketing approval, along with the manufacturing processes, qualification testing, postapproval clinical data, labeling and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continual and additional requirements ofthe FDA and other regulatory authorities.These requirements include submissions of safety and other postmarketing information, reports, registration and listing requirements,good manufacturing practices, or GMP requirements relating to quality control, quality assurance and corresponding maintenance of recordsand documents, and recordkeeping. Even if marketing approval of our product candidate is granted, the approval may be subject to limitationson the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or to conditions of approval, or contain requirements for costly postmarketingtesting and surveillance to monitor the safety or efficacy of the product. The FDA closely regulates the postapproval marketing and promotionof pharmaceutical products to ensure such products are marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions ofthe approved labeling.In addition, later discovery of previously unknown problems with our products, manufacturing processes, or failure to comply withregulatory requirements, may lead to various adverse results, including:·restrictions on such products, manufacturers or manufacturing processes;·restrictions on the labeling or marketing of a product;·restrictions on product distribution or use;·requirements to conduct postmarketing clinical trials;·requirements to institute a risk evaluation mitigation strategy, or REMS, to monitor safety of the product postapproval;·warning letters issued by the FDA or other regulatory authorities;·withdrawal of the products from the market;·refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications that we submit;·recall of products, fines, restitution or disgorgement of profits or revenue;·suspension, revocation or withdrawal of marketing approvals;·refusal to permit the import or export of our products; and·injunctions or the imposition of civil or criminal penalties.We currently have no marketing and sales organization and have no experience in marketing products. If we are unable to establishmarketing and sales capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market and sell our product candidates, we may not be ableto generate product revenue.We currently have no sales, marketing or distribution capabilities and have no experience as a company in marketing products. If wedevelop internal sales, marketing and distribution organization, this would require significant capital expenditures, management resources andtime, and we would have to compete with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to recruit, hire, train and retain marketing andsales personnel.If we are unable or decide not to establish internal sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, we expect to pursue collaborativearrangements regarding the sales, marketing and distribution of our products. However, we may not be able to establish or maintain suchcollaborative arrangements, or if we are able to do so, their sales forces may not be successful in marketing our products. Any revenue wereceive would depend upon the efforts of such third parties, which may not be successful. We may have little or no control over the sales,marketing and distribution efforts of such third parties and our revenue from product sales may be lower than if we had commercialized ourproduct candidates ourselves. We also face competition in our search for third parties to assist us with the sales, marketing and distributionefforts of our product candidates. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop internal sales, marketing distribution capabilities orestablish or maintain relationships with thirdparty collaborators to commercialize any product in the United States or overseas.50Table of ContentsWe face substantial competition from other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and our operating results may suffer if we fail tocompete effectively.The development and commercialization of new drug products is highly competitive. We expect that we will face significant competitionfrom major pharmaceutical companies, specialty pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies worldwide with respect to INKmuneand any other of our product candidates that we may seek to develop or commercialize in the future. Specifically, due to the large unmet medicalneed, global demographics and relatively attractive reimbursement dynamics, the oncology market is fiercely competitive and there are a numberof large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that currently market and sell products or are pursuing the development of productcandidates for the treatment of cancer. Our competitors may succeed in developing, acquiring or licensing technologies and drug products thatare more effective, have fewer or more tolerable side effects or are less costly than any product candidates that we are currently developing orthat we may develop, which could render our product candidates obsolete and noncompetitive.We rely on key personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to groweffectively.We are dependent on certain members of our management, the loss of services of one or more of whom could materially adverselyaffect us. In particular, our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Dr. Raymond J. Tesi, our President and CEO.Dr. Tesi has overseen INmune Bio since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy as well as being an inventorof our patents. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Tesi, if he were to nevertheless terminate his employment withus, the loss of the services of Dr. Tesi, would have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We are alsohighly dependent on the other principal members of our management and scientific team. We are not aware of any present intention of any ofour key personnel to leave our company or to retire. The loss of any of our key personnel, or the inability to attract and retain qualifiedpersonnel, may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our research, development or business objectives and could materiallyadversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.Our ability to manage growth effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our management systems and to recruitand train new employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully attract and retain skilled and experienced personnel.Product liability lawsuits against us could divert our resources, cause us to incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of anyproducts that we may develop.We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our product candidate despite obtainingappropriate informed consents from our clinical trial participants. We will face an even greater risk if we commercially sell any product that wemay develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable duringclinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defectsin design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be assertedunder state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantialliabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims mayresult in:·decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;·injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention; ·withdrawal of clinical trial participants;·significant costs to defend resulting litigation;·substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;·loss of revenue;·reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and·the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.51Table of ContentsAlthough we plan to maintain general liability insurance, this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. Thecost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. In addition, insurance coverage isbecoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwiseprotect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our productcandidate, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.We will need to grow the size and capabilities of our organization, and we may experience difficulties in managing this growth.To execute our business plan, we will need to rapidly add other management, accounting, regulatory, manufacturing and scientific staff.We currently have 3 full time employees consisting of our executive officers and retain the services of additional personnel on an independentcontractor basis. We will need to attract, retain and motivate a significant number of new additional managerial, operational, sales, marketing,financial, and other personnel, as well as highly skilled scientific and medical personnel, and to expand our capabilities to successfully pursueour research, development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts and secure collaborations to market and distribute our products. Thisgrowth may strain our existing managerial, operational, financial and other resources. We also intend to add personnel in our research anddevelopment and manufacturing departments as we expand our clinical trial and research capabilities. Any inability to attract and retain qualifiedemployees to enable our planned growth and establish additional capabilities or our failure to manage our growth effectively could delay orcurtail our product development and commercialization efforts and harm our business.If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers do not maintain high standards of manufacturing, our ability to develop and commercializeour product candidate could be delayed or curtailed.We and any third parties that we may use in the future to manufacture our products must continuously adhere to cGMP regulationsrigorously enforced by the FDA through its facilities inspection program. If our facilities or the facilities of third parties who produce ourproducts do not pass a preapproval inspection, the FDA will not grant market approval for INKmune. In complying with cGMP, we and anythirdparty manufacturers will need to expend significant time, money and effort in production, recordkeeping and quality control to assure thateach component of INKmune meets applicable specifications and other requirements. We or any of these thirdparty manufacturers may also besubject to comparable or more stringent regulations of foreign regulatory authorities. If we or any of our thirdparty manufacturers fail to complywith these requirements, we may be subject to regulatory action, which could delay or curtail our ability to develop, obtain regulatory approvalof, and commercialize INKmune. If our component part manufacturers and suppliers fail to provide components of sufficient quality, and thatmeet our required specifications, our clinical trials or commercialization of INKmune could be delayed or halted, and we could face productliability claims.If we or our thirdparty manufacturers use hazardous and biological materials in a manner that causes injury or violates applicable law,we may be liable for damages.Our research and development activities involve the controlled use of potentially hazardous substances, including chemical andbiological materials, by us and any thirdparty manufacturers. We and such manufacturers will be subject to federal, state and local laws andregulations in the United States governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of medical and hazardous materials. Althoughwe will seek to ensure that our procedures for using, storing and disposing of these materials comply with legally prescribed standards, wecannot completely eliminate the risk of contamination or injury resulting from medical or hazardous materials. As a result of any suchcontamination or injury, we may incur liability or local, city, state or federal authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt ourbusiness operations. In the event of an accident, we could be held liable for damages or penalized with fines, and the liability could exceed ourresources. We do not have any insurance for liabilities arising from medical or hazardous materials. Compliance with applicable environmentallaws and regulations is expensive, and current or future environmental regulations may impair our research, development and productionefforts, which could harm our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.52Table of ContentsWe plan to rely on third parties to conduct clinical trials for our product candidate. Any failure by a third party to meet its obligations withrespect to the clinical development of our product candidate may delay or impair our ability to obtain regulatory approval for our productcandidate.We plan to rely on academic institutions and private oncology centers to conduct and sponsor clinical trials relating to INKmune. Ourreliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials could, depending on the actions of such third parties, jeopardize the validity of the clinical datagenerated and adversely affect our ability to obtain marketing approval from the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities.Such clinical trial arrangements will provide us with information rights with respect to the clinical data, including access to and theability to use and reference the data, including for our own regulatory filings, resulting from the clinical trials. If investigators or institutionsbreach their obligations with respect to the clinical trials of our product candidate, or if the data proves to be inadequate, then our ability todesign and conduct any future clinical trials may be adversely affected.Our reliance on these third parties for research and development activities will reduce our control over these activities but will notrelieve us of our responsibilities. For example, we will design our clinical trials and will remain responsible for ensuring that each of our clinicaltrials is conducted in accordance with the general investigational plan and protocols for the trial. Moreover, the FDA requires us to comply withstandards, commonly referred to as good clinical practices, or GCPs, for conducting, recording and reporting the results of clinical trials toassure that data and reported results are credible and accurate and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of trial participants are protected.Our reliance on third parties that we do not control will not relieve us of these responsibilities and requirements. We also are required to registerongoing clinical trials and post the results of completed clinical trials on a governmentsponsored database, ClinicalTrials.gov, within specifiedtimeframes. Failure to do so can result in fines, adverse publicity and civil and criminal sanctions.Furthermore, these third parties may also have relationships with other entities, some of which may be our competitors. If these thirdparties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, meet expected deadlines or conduct our clinical trials in accordance withregulatory requirements or our stated protocols, we will not be able to obtain, or may be delayed in obtaining, marketing approvals for ourproduct candidate and will not be able to, or may be delayed in our efforts to, successfully commercialize our product candidate.We also expect to rely on other third parties to store and distribute drug supplies for our clinical trials. Any performance failure on thepart of our distributors could delay clinical development or marketing approval of our product candidate or commercialization of our products,producing additional losses and depriving us of potential product revenue.Recent legislative and regulatory activity may exert downward pressure on potential pricing and reimbursement for our products, ifapproved, could materially affect our opportunity to commercialize such products.The United States and several other jurisdictions are considering, or have already enacted, a number of legislative and regulatoryproposals to change the healthcare system in ways that could affect our ability to sell any of our products profitably, if approved. Amongpolicymakers and payors in the United States and elsewhere, there is significant interest in promoting changes in healthcare systems with thestated goals of containing healthcare costs, improving quality and/or expanding access to healthcare. In the United States, the pharmaceuticalindustry has been a particular focus of these efforts and has been significantly affected by major legislative initiatives. There have been, andlikely will continue to be, legislative and regulatory proposals at the federal and state levels directed at broadening the availability of healthcareand containing or lowering the cost of healthcare. We cannot predict the initiatives that may be adopted in the future. The continuing efforts ofthe government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs ofhealthcare may adversely affect:53Table of Contents·the demand for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our products, if approved;·our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;·the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and·the availability of capital.In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act, or the ACA, became law in the United States (see “Business — Government Regulation”). Thegoal of ACA is to reduce the cost of healthcare, broaden access to health insurance, constrain healthcare spending, enhance remedies againstfraud and abuse, add transparency requirements for the healthcare and health insurance industries, impose taxes and fees on the healthindustry, impose additional health policy reforms, and substantially change the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and privateinsurers. While we cannot predict what impact on federal reimbursement policies this legislation will have in general or on our businessspecifically, ACA may result in downward pressure on pharmaceutical reimbursement, which could negatively affect market acceptance of anyof our products, if they are approved.We cannot predict what healthcare reform initiatives may be adopted in the future. Further federal, state and foreign legislative andregulatory developments are likely, and we expect ongoing initiatives to increase pressure on drug pricing. Such reforms could have an adverseeffect on anticipated revenues from product candidates that we may successfully develop and for which we may obtain regulatory approval andmay affect our overall financial condition and ability to develop product candidates.Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly onobtaining and enforcing patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the pharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legalcomplexity, and therefore, is costly, timeconsuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and iscurrently implementing wideranging patent reform legislation. Further, recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings have either narrowed the scope ofpatent protection available in certain circumstances or weakened the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasinguncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to thevalue of patents, once obtained.In September 2011, the LeahySmith America Invents Act, or the American Invents Act, or AIA, was signed into law. The AIA includesa number of significant changes to U.S. patent law, including provisions that affect the way patent applications will be prosecuted and may alsoaffect patent litigation. The USPTO is currently developing regulations and procedures to govern administration of the AIA, and many of thesubstantive changes to patent law associated with the AIA. It is not clear what other, if any, impact the AIA will have on the operation of ourbusiness. Moreover, the AIA and its implementation could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patentapplication, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.An important change introduced by the AIA is that, as of March 16, 2013, the United States transitioned to a “firsttofile” system fordeciding which party should be granted a patent when two or more patent applications are filed by different parties claiming the same invention.A third party that files a patent application in the USPTO after that date but before us could therefore be awarded a patent covering aninvention of ours even if we had made the invention before it was made by the third party. This will require us to be cognizant going forward ofthe time from invention to filing of a patent application. Furthermore, our ability to obtain and maintain valid and enforceable patents dependson whether the differences between our technology and the prior art allow our technology to be patentable over the prior art. Since patentapplications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time after filing, we cannot be certain that we were thefirst to either (1) file any patent application related to our product candidates or (2) invent any of the inventions claimed in our patents or patentapplications.54Table of ContentsAmong some of the other changes introduced by the AIA are changes that limit where a patentee may file a patent infringement suitand providing opportunities for third parties to challenge any issued patent in the USPTO. This applies to all of our U.S. patents, even thoseissued before March 16, 2013. Because of a lower evidentiary standard in USPTO proceedings compared to the evidentiary standard in UnitedStates federal court necessary to invalidate a patent claim, a third party could potentially provide evidence in a USPTO proceeding sufficient forthe USPTO to hold a claim invalid even though the same evidence would be insufficient to invalidate the claim if first presented in a districtcourt action. Accordingly, a third party may attempt to use the USPTO procedures to invalidate our patent claims that would not have beeninvalidated if first challenged by the third party as a defendant in a district court action.The United Kingdom’s vote in favor of withdrawing from the European Union could lead to increased market volatility which could makeit more difficult for us to do business in the U.K. or have other adverse effects on our business.The U.K. is currently negotiating the terms of its exit from the European Union (“Brexit”) scheduled for March 29, 2019. In November2018, the U.K. and the European Union agreed upon a draft withdrawal agreement (“Withdrawal Agreement”) that sets out the terms of theU.K.’s departure, including commitments on citizen rights after Brexit, a financial settlement from the U.K., and a transition period from March 29,2019 through December 31, 2020 to allow time for a future trade agreement to be agreed. On January 15, 2019, the draft Withdrawal Agreementwas rejected by the U.K. Parliament creating significant uncertainty about the terms (and timing) under which the U.K. will leave the EuropeanUnion. If no agreement can be reached and the U.K. leaves the European Union with no agreement (“hard Brexit”), there will be a period ofconsiderable uncertainty particularly in relation to United Kingdom financial and banking markets as well as on the regulatory process inEurope. In addition, currency exchange rates in the pound sterling and the euro with respect to each other and the U.S. dollar have already beenadversely affected by Brexit. Should this foreign exchange volatility continue it could cause volatility in our financial results. Further this couldchange or eliminate the R&D rebate program that the company uses to help fund R&D and clinical trials.Risks Related to our Common StockThe Company’s common stock is controlled by insiders.The Company’s officers and directors beneficially own 72.86% of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, shareholders may haveno effective voice in the management of the Company.We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our commonstock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, weanticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, youshould take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock, and could significantly affect thevalue of any investment in our Company.Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders,which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our Board ofDirectors will have the authority to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ourBoard of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets uponliquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to theredemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors couldauthorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into ourcommon stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.55Table of ContentsWe are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive and may divert resources from otherprojects, thus impairing our ability grow.We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherfederal securities laws, including compliance with the SarbanesOxley Act of 2002 (the “SarbanesOxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filingannual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders would causeour expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained privately held.It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by theSarbanesOxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop andimplement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures.We have elected to take advantage of specified reduced disclosure requirements applicable to an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act, the information that we provide to stockholders may be different than they might receive from other public companies.As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no non binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements; and·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting and delaying theadoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until thosestandards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens. We have not taken advantage of any of these reduced reporting burdens in this Annual Report, although we may choose to do so infuture filings. If we do, the information that we provide stockholders may be different than you might get from other public companies thatcomply with public company effective dates.56Table of ContentsOur stock price may be volatile.The market price of our Common Stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors,many of which are beyond our control, including the following:●changes in our industry;●competitive pricing pressures;●our ability to obtain working capital financing;●additions or departures of key personnel;●limited “public float” in the hands of a small number of persons whose sales or lack of sales could result in positive or negativepricing pressure on the market price for our common stock;●sales of our common stock;●our ability to execute our business plan;●operating results that fall below expectations;●loss of any strategic relationship;●regulatory developments;●economic and other external factors;●periodtoperiod fluctuations in our financial results; and●inability to develop or acquire new or needed technology or products.In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to theoperating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of ourCommon Stock.You may have difficulty trading and obtaining quotations for our Common Stock.Our securities are not actively traded, and the bid and asked prices for our Common Stock may fluctuate widely. As a result, investorsmay find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of, our securities. This severely limits the liquidity of the CommonStock, and would likely reduce the market price of our Common Stock and hamper our ability to raise additional capital. There is a limited marketfor our securities. Accordingly, investors may therefore bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities thereof, for an indefinite periodof time.Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute your percentage ownership of our company.Given our plans and expectations that we may need additional capital and personnel, we may need to issue additional shares of common stockor securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options orwarrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then current stockholders.ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTSNot applicable.ITEM 2. PROPERTIESNone. ITEM 3.

MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OFEQUITY SECURITIESCommon StockOur common stock began trading on the Nasdaq under the symbol “INMB” on February 4, 2019. Prior to that, there was no publicmarket for our common stock. As a result, we have not set forth quarterly information with respect to the high and low prices for our commonstock for the two most recent fiscal years or provided a performance graph.As of March 25, 2019, there were 9,740,261 shares of our common stock outstanding held by approximately 63 holders of record.Sales of Unregistered SecuritiesOn May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company recorded $4,626,000of stockbased compensation expense during the year ended December 31, 2018 for the 600,000 shares of common stock to be issued.During the year ended December 31, 2018, to complete a series of funding provided for in the Company’s joint development agreementdated September 3, 2016, the Company received $900,000 in cash from Luminus in exchange for 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.Luminus is owned by a significant shareholder of the Company.In connection with the foregoing, we relied upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of1933, as amended, for transactions not involving a public offering.Purchases of Equity Securities by the IssuerThere were no repurchases of our common stock during the year ended December 31, 2018.58Table of ContentsEquity Compensation Plan InformationAs of December 31, 2018, all compensation based on our equity was awarded under the INmune Bio, Inc. 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the“2017 Plan”).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with ourfinancial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. In addition to historical financial information, thefollowing discussion and analysis contains forwardlooking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual resultscould differ materially from those anticipated by these forwardlooking statements as a result of many factors. We discuss factors that webelieve could cause or contribute to these differences below and elsewhere in this Form 10K, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”and “ForwardLooking Statements.”OverviewWe are a clinicalstage immunotherapy company focused on reprograming the patient’s innate immune system to treat disease. We dothis by targeting three key cells of the innate immune system, natural killer, or NK cells, and myeloid derived suppressor cells, or MDSC andmicroglial cells of the central nervous system. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to their innate ability to rapidly seek and destroyabnormal cells, such as cancer or virallyinfected cells, without prior exposure or activation by other support molecules required to activateadaptive immune cells such as Tcells. NK cells play a key role in the immunesurveillance that prevents people from getting cancer and ineliminating residual disease which may cause people to relapse after cytotoxic therapy. MDSC are myeloid cells that develop secondary to thechronic inflammatory environment found in many cancers. MDSC, produced in the bone marrow, take up residence in the tumormicroenvironment, the tissue associated with the cancerous cells, to protect to the tumor from immunological attack by the patient’s immunesystem. MDSC play a critical role in making the cancer resistant to immunotherapy such as currently approved checkpoint inhibitors. Microglialcells are the primary immune cells of the central nervous system responsible for protecting the neural unit of microglia, astrocytes,oligodendrocytes and neurons from infection. In the setting of chronic inflammation, microglial cells become activated and cause dysfunction ofthe other three cells types in the neural unit resulting in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. INB03 and XPro1595 are the identicaldrug used in different therapeutic arenas. INB03 is the name of the drug for cancer targeted applications. XPro1595 in the name of the drug forneurology and psychiatric indications.59Table of ContentsWe believe INKmune, our NK cell directed therapy, and INB03 and our MDSC directed therapy our microglial directed offer uniquestrategies to improve the response of patient’s the innate immune system to their cancer. These therapies will use a precision medicine approachto select patients who will benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. Neither therapy is cancer specific. The decision touse either INKmune or INB03 alone or in combination other cancer therapies or with each other depends on immunologic parameters that can betested in patients before treatment. The type of cancer is not important. This means that both therapies can be used to treat patients wide variedto hematologic malignancies and solid tumors that have the immunologic profile needed to respond. Put simply, we are treating the immunesystem to attack the patients the cancer, not targeting the patient’s cancer directly.Likewise, we believe XPro1595, our microglial directed therapy, offers a unique strategy to decrease neuroinflammation, a keypathophysiology in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. XPro1595 will use a precision medicine approach to select patients whowill benefit from the therapy and monitor the response to the therapy. The therapy is not diagnosis specific but will be used in patients whohave biomarkers of neuroinflammation. Our initial program with XPro1595 will be treating patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s diseasewith biomarkers inflammation.We believe that INKmune improves the ability of the patient’s own NK cells to attack their tumor. INKmune itself will not kill cancercells. INKmune interacts with the patient’s NK cells to convert them from an inert resting NK cells that ignores the cancer into a primed NK cellsthat kills the cancer cell. INKmune is a replication incompetent proprietary cell line we have named INB16 that is given to the patient afterdetermining that i) the patient has adequate NK cells in their circulation and ii) those NK cells are functional when exposed to INKmune in vitro.INKmune is designed to be given to patients after their immune system has recovered after cytotoxic chemotherapy to target the residualdisease the remains after treatment with cytotoxic therapy.INB03, shown in Figure 4 above, is an engineered protein therapeutic that neutralizes soluble TNF using DominantNegativetechnology. DominantNegative TNF biology is possible because of the unique properties of TNF. TNF is comprised of 3 identical proteins thatform a homotrimer that bind the TNF receptor. INB03, a mutated form of the monomer, can displace one or more of the monomers for the sTNFhomotrimer to form a heterotrimer. The heterotrimer is unable to bind TNFR. Without sTNF/TNFR interaction, there is not biologic affect. This isshown in Figure 5 below.60Table of ContentsThe unique mechanism of action allows INB03 to be the only selective TNF inhibitor that affects only sTNF. All currently available TNFinhibitors are nonselective TNF inhibitors that block both sTNF and tmTNF. This functional difference shown in Figure 6 below translates intotherapeutic differences. The most obvious in the use of a TNF inhibitor in the treatment of cancer patients is related to safety. NonselectiveTNF inhibitors are immunosuppressive because they inhibit both sTNF and tmTNF. INB03 is not immunosuppressive because it inhibits onlysTNF and allows tmTNF to function normally (please refer to Figure 3). In animal models of cancer, the combination of no sTNF with functionaltmTNF after treatment with INB03 improved the immune response against the tumor compared to animals treated with the nonselective TNFinhibitor etanercept (Vujanovic 2016). In summary, sTNF, by binding to TNFR1, is essential for MDSC proliferation by causing phosphorylationof STAT3. Without the binding of sTNF to TNFR1, the proliferation of the MDSC stops and the MDSC population collapses. Without theimmunosuppressive shield provided by the MDSC population, the patient’s immune system, without concomitant immunotherapy, can attackthe tumor. A secondary effect of INB03 is to improve NK cellsdendritic cell (NK/DC) crosstalk to help expand patient’s antitumor immuneresponse by recruiting cytotoxic T cells of the adaptive immune system. tmTNF is essential to NK/DC crosstalk.We believe our innate immune system reprogram platforms provides unique strategies to repair the immunologic dysfunction thatcharacterizes the innate immune system of patients with cancer. The products can be used alone, in combination with other antitumor orimmunotherapy treatments or with each other. In the near term, we are developing the products separately. After completion of proofofconceptPhase II trials, we will consider developing them as a combination therapy. Until we complete clinical trials, we cannot predict if either productwill be successful when use alone, in combination with other therapies or in combination with each other.61Table of ContentsThe mechanism of action for XPro1595 is identical to INB03, but the cell type targeted in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatricdisease is different. Microglial cells are macrophage like immune cell that is unique to the central nervous system. Activated microglial cellsproduce inflammatory cytokines and phagocytos debris in the brain to promote normal function of the neural unit and protect the brain againstinfection. Chronic inflammation is a low grade, unrelenting inflammatory process that is destructive to the host resulting in dendritic pruning,synaptic dysfunction and cell dysfunction and death. Death of nerve cells can cause cognitive decline of AD, motor dysfunction of Parkinson’sdisease or ALS. Death of oligodendrocytes that produce myelin can cause MS and other demyelinating diseases. In the brain, the unique actionof XPro1595 to neutralize the destructive cytokine soluble TNF while promoting the function of the transmembrane TNF, the protectivecytokine is unique. Neutralization of soluble TNF and polarization of the immunology to transmembrane TNF effects prevents dendritic pruningand synaptic dysfunction, promotes phagocytosis of debris by microglial cells and prevents demyelinization of neurons. These effects havebenefits across a broad range of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatirc diseases. At this time, due to nondilutive funding provided by theParttheCloud Award from the Alzheimer’s Association, we will focus our develop efforts on Alzheimer’s disease. The funding provided by theAlzheimer’s Association supports a Phase I trial. If the trial is successful and the Company decides to pursue additional development is AD,additional funding will be needed to support a Phase II trial. In the future, when resources become available, we may expand our activities otherneurodegenerative or neuropsychiatric diseases.Mesenchymal Stem Cells (“MSC”) are pluripotent cells with potent immunologic effects which can be used alone as an antiinflammatory treatment strategy or a vector to deliver gene therapy. We have access to a large quantity of human, GMPgrade MSC that can berepurposed for use in medical research or clinical trials. We plan to sell these cells to third parties. We may expand this activity in the future toinclude positioning the company as a contract manufacturer for companies developing MSC products or developing our own MSC basedproducts. At this time, the program will be selfsustaining and growing on reinvestment of revenues from the sale of the MSC products.Our Integrated Discovery and Development Process. Our focus on reprograming the patient’s immune system to better attack diseaseallows for synergies between the development and discovery process. A majority of our effort is focused on the development process thatincludes improving the manufacturing systems for INKmune and INB03/XPro1595 and optimizing bioassays to be used during the clinical trials.These manufacturing and monitoring programs may produce discoveries that the company can capitalize on as product improvements or newproducts. INB03 has uses beyond treatment of resistance to immunotherapy in oncology and XPro1595 has uses beyond the treatment of AD inthe treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, cardiovascular diseases including congestive heart failure and metabolicdiseases including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Although the Company will focuson the immunooncology uses of INB03 in the near term and the treatment of AD with XPro1595, the Company plans to expand the developmentinto these other indications as resources become available. All attempts will be made to fund new research and development with nondilutiveresources that come from grants or revenue from sales of the MSC products.Since our inception in 2015, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to the discovery and development of our productcandidates, including preparing for clinical trials, drug manufacturing and funding general and administrative support for these operations. Todate, we have generated no revenue. We have incurred net losses in each year since our inception and, as of December 31, 2018, we had anaccumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Our net losses were $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general andadministrative costs associated with our operations, including stockbased compensation.We classify our operating expenses into three categories: royalties and cost of licensing; research and development; and selling,general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs including salaries, benefits, bonuses and stockbased compensation expense comprise asignificant component of our research and development and selling, general and administrative expense categories. We allocate expensesassociated with our facilities and information technology costs between these two categories based on the nature of each cost.62Table of ContentsAs a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” under theJOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwiseapplicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:·only two years of audited financial statements in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements withcorrespondingly reduced “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” disclosure;·reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements;·no nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements;·exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting; and·delaying the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companiesuntil those standards apply to private companies.We have elected to take advantage of the abovereferenced exemptions and we may take advantage of these exemptions for up to fiveyears or such earlier time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. We would cease to be an emerging growth company if we havemore than $1 billion in annual revenues, we have more than $700 million in market value of our stock held by nonaffiliates, or we issue morethan $1 billion of nonconvertible debt over a threeyear period. We may choose to take advantage of some but not all of these reducedburdens.Royalties and Cost of LicensingRoyalties and cost of licensing primarily consists of our expenses related to the generation of revenue from our license agreements.These expenses primarily consist of royalty payments made pursuant to our inlicensing agreements and patent amortization expense. We haveinlicensing agreements with various parties for the right to use their products and / or intellectual property. We expect our royalty payments tobe small until we advance our products through the clinic and generate sales.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expense consists of expenses incurred while performing research and development activities to discoverand develop our product candidates. This includes conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, manufacturing development efforts andactivities related to regulatory filings for product candidates. We recognize research and development expenses as they are incurred. Ourresearch and development expense primarily consist of:·clinical trial and regulatoryrelated costs;·expenses incurred under agreements with investigative sites and consultants that conduct our clinical trials;·manufacturing and testing costs and related supplies and materials;·employeerelated expenses, including salaries, benefits, travel and stockbased compensation; and·facility expenses dedicated to research and development.63Table of ContentsWe typically use our employee, consultant and infrastructure resources across our development programs. We track outsourceddevelopment costs by product candidate or development program, but we do not allocate personnel costs, other internal costs or externalconsultant costs to specific product candidates or development programs.Substantially all of our research and development expenses to date have been incurred in connection with our product candidates. Weexpect our research and development expenses to increase significantly for the foreseeable future as we advance an increased number of ourproduct candidates through clinical development, including the conduct of our planned clinical trials. The process of conducting clinical trialsnecessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. The successful development of product candidates is highly uncertain.At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing or costs required to complete the remaining development of any productcandidates. This is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of product candidates.The costs of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project owing to, but not limited to, the following:·per patient trial costs;·the number of sites included in the clinical trials;·the countries in which the clinical trials are conducted;·the length of time required to enroll eligible patients;·the number of patients that participate in the clinical trials;·the number of doses that patients receive;·the cost of comparative agents used in clinical trials;·the dropout or discontinuation rates of patients;·potential additional safety monitoring or other studies requested by regulatory agencies;·the duration of patient followup; and·the efficacy and safety profile of the product candidate.We do not expect any of our product candidates to be commercially available for at least the next several years, if ever. We expect tocontinue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, which may fluctuate significantly from quartertoquarter and yeartoyear. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:·continue research and development, including preclinical and clinical development of our existing product candidates;·potentially seek regulatory approval for our product candidates;·seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;·establish a commercialization infrastructure and scale up our manufacturing and distribution capabilities to commercialize any of ourproduct candidates for which we may obtain regulatory approval;64Table of Contents·seek to comply with regulatory standards and laws;·maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;·hire clinical, manufacturing, scientific and other personnel to support our product candidates development and futurecommercialization efforts;·add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel; and·incur additional legal, accounting and other expenses in operating as a public company.We may generate a small amount of revenue from MSC product sales in the near future. We do not plan to put a significant commercialinfrastructure in place to support the sale of the MSC products. We may partner with specialty groups to help with distribution and sales. Wewill be opportunistic in sales of the MSC for clinical trials. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales of INKmune or INB03 untilwe successfully complete development and obtain marketing approval for one or more of our product candidates. We do not expect that tohappen for at least the next several years, if ever. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenue from product sales, if ever, we expectto finance our operating activities through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other thirdparty funding,marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unableto raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all, which would have a negative impacton our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our research and development programs or commercializationefforts. Failure to receive additional funding could cause the company to fail.Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and EstimatesThis management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements,which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financialstatements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reportedperiods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various otherfactors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carryingvalue of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under differentassumptions or conditions.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the assethas alternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocessresearch and development intangible assets when their useful lives have been determined. Acquired inprocess research and developmentintangible assets which are determined to have had a drop in their fair value are adjusted downward and an expense recognized in research anddevelopment expenses. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually or when a triggeringevent occurs that could indicate a potential impairment.StockBased CompensationWe record the fair value of stock options issued to our employees as of the grant date as compensation expense. We recognizecompensation expense, net of forfeitures, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicable vestingperiod.We account for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. We value equity instruments and stock options granted using the BlackScholes optionpricing model. The valueof nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlying equity instruments vest and is recognized asan expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.65Table of ContentsOn October 3, 2017, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, Immune Ventures assigned all of its rights, obligations and liabilities under the Exclusive LicenseAgreement between the University of Pittsburgh – Of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education and Immune Ventures. Pursuant to theAssignment and Assumption Agreement, the Company agreed to convert the amount Immune Ventures paid of $162,634 into shares of theCompany’s common stock valued at $7.71 per share, based on the per share value of the shares issued to Xencor, for 21,094 shares for thereimbursement of amounts paid by the Assignor to the University of Pittsburgh, which the Company recorded as stockbased compensationwithin research and development expense. These shares were issued on December 31, 2017.During 2017, the Company issued fully vested warrants to purchase 31,667 shares of the Company’s common stock to a third party inconjunction with the common stock sold for cash, with an exercise price of $1.50 per share, maturity date of June 30, 2022, and fair value of$36,922 using the BlackScholes optionpricing model, which were recorded as stockbased compensation.During March 2018, the CEO and CFO were each granted an option to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a$7.80 exercise price. Onethird of the options vested on January 1, 2018 and the remainder shall vest on a monthly basis over a 24 month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $5,115,693 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.During March 2018, a board member was granted 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a $7.80 exercise price. Theseoptions vest over a 24month term. The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,557,847 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricingmodel.During April 2018, the Company granted options to purchase 108,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to each of four Boardmembers, of which 3,000 options shall vest monthly. The options have a 10year term and a $7.80 exercise price and vest over a 36month term.The grant date fair value of these stock options was $2,743,894 based on the BlackScholes Option Pricing model.On May 16, 2018, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Pacific Seaboard Investments Ltd. for corporate governance,compliance services regarding the filing of a listing application and assist with activities related to its initial public offering. The term of theconsulting agreement is from April 24, 2018 to May 1, 2021. In consideration of the consultant’s services, the Company agreed to issue 600,000shares of its restricted common stock, of which 200,000 shares were to be issued on May 16, 2018 (these shares are not yet issued as ofDecember 31, 2018), 200,000 shares shall be locked up for six months after the effective date of the Company’s registration statement and 200,000shares shall be locked up for 10 months after the date of the Company’s offering. The Company recorded stockbased compensation based onthe Company’s estimate of the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of the issuance date, which the Company estimated using the thirdparty valuation it obtained in connection with the acquisition of the Xencor license which valued the Company’s common stock at $7.71 pershare.OffBalance Sheet ArrangementsDuring the periods presented, we did not have any offbalance sheet arrangements as defined under SEC rules.Licensing and Collaboration AgreementsWe anticipate that inlicensing, outlicensing and strategic collaborations will become an integral part of our operations, providing thecompany with opportunities to leverage our partners’ expertise and capabilities to further expand the potential of our technologies, productcandidates and revenue streams.66Table of ContentsXencorIn October 2017, we licensed INB03, also known as XPro1595, from Xencor. This exclusive, global, unrestricted license came withconsiderable knowhow, intellectual property, preclinical data, regulatory documentation and product stocks. Currently, we are focused on theimmuneoncology uses of this unique asset. In the future, we may develop the asset in a wide variety of therapeutic areas, with a variety ofdelivery techniques by ourselves or in conjunction with partners.Unit OfferingIn June 2017, the Company completed a private placement in which we sold 1,393,335 of units to accredited investors at a per unit priceof $10,000 with each unit consisting of 6,667 shares of our common stock, and received net proceeds of approximately $2,056,000, net ofissuance costs of $34,000. Pursuant to the subscription agreement between the Company and the investors of the offering, for a period of twoyears from June 30, 2017, if the Company sells shares of common stock or the right to receive common stock at a price per share which valuesthe Company at less than $10,000,000, the Company will issue additional shares of common stock to each investor in the offering such that theinvestor will receive the same effective price per share as the investors in any such future offering, however the Company has not sold itscommon stock at a valuation of less than $10,000,000 since the inception of this agreement. Pursuant to the subscription agreement, theCompany agreed to file a registration statement to register the shares of common stock sold in the offering within five months after the finalclosing and seek to have the registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within six months of the filingor else incur penalties, however the Company was unable to meet this timeline. The Company received waivers from all shareholders except forone pursuant to the registration rights. We expect to pay the one investor who did not waive its registration rights approximately $1,500 inpenalties. The offer and sale of the units were made in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded under Section 4(a)(2) of theSecurities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. The unit offering was not conducted in connection with a public offering,and no public solicitation or advertisement was made or relied upon by the investors in connection with the unit offering.In connection with the offering we paid a registered broker dealer a commission of $47,500, and we issued warrants to purchase 31,667shares of our common stock with a strike price of $1.50 per share for 5 years from June 30, 2017, with a fair value of $36,922.Initial Public OfferingThe Company entered into subscription agreements for the initial public offing (“IPO”) and sold, on a best efforts basis, 1,020,820shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a per share purchase price of $8.00 per share (including subscription agreements withinsiders of the Company for an aggregate purchase price of $416,000). In connection with the IPO, the Company received gross proceeds of$8,166,560 before deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses. Univest Securities, LLC (“Univest”) served as the lead placementagent for the IPO and WallachBeth Capital, LLC and WestPark Capital, Inc. were coplacement agents (Univest, Wallach Beth Capital, LLC andWestPark Capital, Inc. are collectively referred to as the Placement Agents”). In connection with the IPO, the Company paid the PlacementAgents $571,659 in commissions and reimbursed Univest for its outofpocket expenses.The Company also agreed to pay Univest an advisory fee of $30,000 upon the closing of the IPO. The fees and expenses paid to thePlacement Agents were paid pursuant to the certain Placement Agent Agreement (the “Placement Agent Agreement”) between the Companyand Univest dated November 16, 2018.A registration statement relating to the IPO was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and was declared effectiveby the SEC as of December 19, 2018.The Company also issued the Placement Agents warrants to purchase 40,833 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exerciseprice of $9.60 per share, which warrants are exercisable from time to time, in whole or in part, during the fiveyear period commencing six monthsfrom the effective date Effectiveness Date. If there is no effective registration statement registering the shares of common stock that thewarrants may be exercisable into, then the warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis.67Table of ContentsOn February 4, 2019, the Company’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “INMB”.Results of OperationsComparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017Year EndedDecember 31,2018December 31,2017ChangeChange$$$%General and Administrative$11,334,634$546,118$10,788,9481,975%Research and Development1,105,389435,362680,027160%Other Income(149,994)(149,994)(100)%Net loss$(12,440,023)$(831,486)$11,618,537General and AdministrativeOperating expenses were $11,334,634 for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $546,118 for the year ended December 31,2017. The increase was primarily attributable to stockcompensation, legal, accounting and other consulting fees which included $10,001,359 ofstockbased compensation expense incurred in 2018 related to stock options issued to employees and directors and stock payable to aconsultant. In addition, the Company incurred $726,242 of professional fees in 2018 related to legal, accounting and other consulting fees.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development expenses increased to $1,105,389 for the year ended December 31, 2018 from $435,362 for the year endedDecember 31, 2017. This increase was due to the start of our Phase I MDSC clinical trial program and the acceptance of the Phase I/II clinicaltrials.Other IncomeOther income earned in 2017 of $149,994 was primarily related to the settlement of a trademark dispute.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesLiquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations andotherwise operate on an ongoing basis.We incurred a net loss of $12,440,023 and $831,486 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Net cash used inoperating activities was $2,058,994 and $761,834 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Prior to our February 2019 IPO,we met our liquidity requirements principally through the sale of our common stock in private placements and the sale of our convertible debt toan investor.As of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868. Losses have principally occurred as a result of thesubstantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which included the general and administrativeexpenses associated with its organization and product development, as well as the lack of sources of revenues until such time as the Company’sproducts are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern from theissuance date of these financial statements. Management plans to pursue additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cashand by implementing its strategic plan to allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be anyassurance that we will be successful in doing so. With cash on hand plus nondilutive funding from the R&D credits and the grant from theAlzheimer’s Association, the Company estimates it can operate through 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.68Table of ContentsAs of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $186,204. Also, we raised net proceeds of $7,251,142 (net of placementfees and offering costs of $915,418) from the sale of common stock to the public in an IPO during February 2019. We anticipate our cash andcash equivalents (including the proceeds from our February 2019 IPO will last through December 31, 2019 and into the first quarter of 2020.At December 31, 2018, we had a cash balance of $186,204, and $1,370,711 as of December 31, 2017. The Company had working capital of$25,576 and $1,589,753, respectively, at December 31, 2018 and 2017. The decrease in our working capital was mainly due to the usage of cash inconnection with our clinical trials, and due to the usage of cash in connection with legal, accounting and consulting efforts in anticipation ofbecoming a public company.Cash FlowsThe following table provides information regarding our cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:Year EndedDecember 31,20182017Net cash used in operating activities$(2,058,994)$(761,834)Net cash used in investing activities(100,000)Net cash provided by financing activities900,0002,056,000Impact on cash from foreign currency translation(25,513)34,886Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents$(1,184,507)$1,229,052Net Cash Used in Operating ActivitiesThe Company used cash of $2,058,994 and $761,834 in operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017,respectively.

(“INmune”) was originally organized in the State of Nevada on September 25, 2015 and is an early stage specialtypharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing our product candidates to treat diseases where the innate immune systemis not functioning normally and contributing to the patient’s disease. INmune’s proprietary is to focus on the innate immune system that includenatural killer cells (“NK cells”), myeloid derived suppressor cells (“MDSC cells”) and dendritic cells (“DC cells”), which are believed to offerunique therapeutic opportunities. INmune plans to develop their two existing drug platforms: INKmune (“INKmune”) which primes NK cells andINB03 (“INB03”) which down regulates MDSC cells. Together or individually, the Company expects that these therapies will harness the innateimmune system to provide a unique set of therapies for patients with cancer.INmune Bio International Ltd (England) (“INmune UK”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of INmune that was formed on April 6, 2016 in the UnitedKingdom (“UK”). INmune UK was duly organized under the laws of England and has 1,000 shares owned by INmune. The Company willperform its drug manufacturing and currently performs its drug research and development in the UK and will continue to perform research anddevelopment activities in this region. The UK has a research and development (“R&D”) rebate program that allows the Company to recoversome of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).On March 28, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of INmune Bio Australia Pty Ltd (Australia) (“INmune Australia”). INmune Australia had noassets or liabilities on the acquisition date and was acquired for approximately $2,000. INmune Australia performs drug research anddevelopment and clinical trials in Australia and will continue to perform research and development activities in this region. Australia has anR&D rebate program that allows the Company to recover some of its R&D expenses (see further discussion in Note 4).Basis of Presentation and Principles of ConsolidationThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (“GAAP”) in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).The consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and include the accounts of INmune and its whollyowned subsidiaries, INmune UK and INmune Australia (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactionshave been eliminated.F7Table of ContentsNOTE 2 – GOING CONCERNAs of December 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,597,868 and experienced losses since its inception. Losses haveprincipally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for research and development of the Company’s products which includedthe general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development as well as the lack of sources of revenuesuntil such time as the Company’s products are commercialized. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asa going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Managementplans to seek additional funding through the issuance of common stock for cash and by implementing its strategic plan to develop itspharmaceutical products and allow the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern, however there cannot be any assurancethat we will be successful in doing so.The Company raised net proceeds of approximately $7.2 in February 2019, received $0.6 million in grants in March 2019 and expects to receivean additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingan additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingrequirements into the first quarter of 2020. The Company plans to raise additional capital to meet its future operating requirements until suchtime as the Company develops a recurring source of revenues, which is not expected for several years. The amount and timing of these capitalraises is subject to general market conditions. There are no guarantees that the company will be able to complete these capital raises.NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESUse of EstimatesPreparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requiresmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual resultsand outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.Cash and Cash EquivalentsFor purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of threemonths or less to be cash equivalents.From time to time, the Company may carry cash balances at financial institutions in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000.ReceivablesReceivables currently consist of an R&D tax credit receivable, valued added tax (“VAT”) receivable, joint development cost receivable and aGoods and Services tax (“GST”) receivable. The R&D tax credit receivable is recorded when R&D is incurred. At that time, the Company recordsa receivable for the amount of the credit it expects to receive based on the expenses incurred. The VAT receivable is recorded when theCompany receives an invoice with VAT related to it. The receivable is recorded for the amount expected to be returned when the VAT tax returnis filed. The joint development cost receivable is recorded when the Company incurs R&D expenses based on the amount it expects to receiveas a reimbursement per the Novamune agreement (see Note 4 for detailed explanation of the agreement). The GST tax receivable is recordedwhen the Company receives an invoice with GST tax related to it. The collectability of these receivables are evaluated periodically based on theactual R&D credit returns submitted, the VAT returns submitted, the GST returns submitted and the amounts received from Novamune. As ofDecember 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no trade receivables.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the asset hasalternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements; patent applications (principally legal fees), patentpurchases, and trademarks related to its cell line as intangible assets. Acquired inprocess research and development costs that do not havealternative uses are expensed as incurred. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets whentheir useful lives have been determined. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually orwhen a triggering event occurs that could indicate a potential impairment. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Companyrecognized impairment related to its intangible assets of $0.F8Table of ContentsBasic and Diluted Loss per ShareBasic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstandingcommon shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is antidilutive. For all periods presented, there is no difference in thenumber of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company’s net loss position.At December 31, 2018, the Company had 1,632,000 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options and 903,611potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.At December 31, 2017, the Company had 864,668 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.StockBased CompensationThe Company utilizes the BlackScholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock option awards at the date of grant,which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs andassumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our sharebased compensation. These assumptions are subjective andgenerally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, ordetermined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stockbased payment arrangements.The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. The Company values equity instruments and stock options granted to nonemployees at fair value using theBlackScholes optionpricing model. The value of nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlyingequity instruments vest and is recognized as an expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.The Company recognizes compensation expense, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicablevesting period.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development (“R&D”) costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development credits are recorded by the Company as areduction of research and development costs. Major components of research and development costs include cash compensation, stockbasedcompensation, depreciation and amortization expense on research and development property and equipment, costs of preclinical studies,clinical trials and related clinical manufacturing, costs of drug development, costs of materials and supplies, facilities cost, overhead costs,regulatory and compliance costs, and fees paid to consultants and other entities that conduct certain research and development activities onthe Company’s behalf.Income TaxesThe Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities arerecognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respectiveincome tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in incomein the period that includes the enactment date.F9Table of ContentsForeign Currency TranslationThe Company’s financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar (“$”), which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functionalcurrencies are the U.S. Dollar for its U.S. based operations and British Pound (“GBP”) for its United Kingdombased operations and AustralianDollars (“AUD”) for its Australianbased operations. All assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date,stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operations items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate forthe period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income. Gains and losses resulting from thetranslations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).New and Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsIn January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 201602, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 201602”). This standard requires that a lessee recognize theassets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make leasepayments (the lease liability) and a rightofuse asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a termof 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets andlease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presentedusing a modified retrospective approach. ASU 201602 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning afterDecember 15, 2018. The Company evaluated the effects that the adoption of this new standard will have on its financial statements and does notexpect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial statements.In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 201807, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Sharebased Payment Accounting.” ASU 201807 aligns accounting for sharebased payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees underthe existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions. This update supersedes previous guidance for equitybased payments tononemployees under Subtopic 50550, “Equity – Equitybased Payments to Nonemployees.” It is effective for annual reporting periodsbeginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new standard will have on its financialstatements.Subsequent EventsThe Company has evaluated all transactions through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent disclosure consideration.NOTE 4 – RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITYAccording to UK tax law, the Company is allowed an R&D tax credit that reduces a company’s tax bill in the UK for expenses incurred in R&Dsubject to certain requirements.

The Company plans to raise additional capital to meet its future operating requirements until suchtime as the Company develops a recurring source of revenues, which is not expected for several years. The amount and timing of these capitalraises is subject to general market conditions. There are no guarantees that the company will be able to complete these capital raises.NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESUse of EstimatesPreparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requiresmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual resultsand outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.Cash and Cash EquivalentsFor purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of threemonths or less to be cash equivalents.From time to time, the Company may carry cash balances at financial institutions in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000.ReceivablesReceivables currently consist of an R&D tax credit receivable, valued added tax (“VAT”) receivable, joint development cost receivable and aGoods and Services tax (“GST”) receivable. The R&D tax credit receivable is recorded when R&D is incurred. At that time, the Company recordsa receivable for the amount of the credit it expects to receive based on the expenses incurred. The VAT receivable is recorded when theCompany receives an invoice with VAT related to it. The receivable is recorded for the amount expected to be returned when the VAT tax returnis filed. The joint development cost receivable is recorded when the Company incurs R&D expenses based on the amount it expects to receiveas a reimbursement per the Novamune agreement (see Note 4 for detailed explanation of the agreement). The GST tax receivable is recordedwhen the Company receives an invoice with GST tax related to it. The collectability of these receivables are evaluated periodically based on theactual R&D credit returns submitted, the VAT returns submitted, the GST returns submitted and the amounts received from Novamune. As ofDecember 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no trade receivables.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the asset hasalternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements; patent applications (principally legal fees), patentpurchases, and trademarks related to its cell line as intangible assets. Acquired inprocess research and development costs that do not havealternative uses are expensed as incurred. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets whentheir useful lives have been determined. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually orwhen a triggering event occurs that could indicate a potential impairment. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Companyrecognized impairment related to its intangible assets of $0.F8Table of ContentsBasic and Diluted Loss per ShareBasic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstandingcommon shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is antidilutive. For all periods presented, there is no difference in thenumber of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company’s net loss position.At December 31, 2018, the Company had 1,632,000 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options and 903,611potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.At December 31, 2017, the Company had 864,668 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.StockBased CompensationThe Company utilizes the BlackScholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock option awards at the date of grant,which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs andassumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our sharebased compensation. These assumptions are subjective andgenerally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, ordetermined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stockbased payment arrangements.The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. The Company values equity instruments and stock options granted to nonemployees at fair value using theBlackScholes optionpricing model. The value of nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlyingequity instruments vest and is recognized as an expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.The Company recognizes compensation expense, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicablevesting period.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development (“R&D”) costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development credits are recorded by the Company as areduction of research and development costs. Major components of research and development costs include cash compensation, stockbasedcompensation, depreciation and amortization expense on research and development property and equipment, costs of preclinical studies,clinical trials and related clinical manufacturing, costs of drug development, costs of materials and supplies, facilities cost, overhead costs,regulatory and compliance costs, and fees paid to consultants and other entities that conduct certain research and development activities onthe Company’s behalf.Income TaxesThe Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities arerecognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respectiveincome tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in incomein the period that includes the enactment date.F9Table of ContentsForeign Currency TranslationThe Company’s financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar (“$”), which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functionalcurrencies are the U.S. Dollar for its U.S. based operations and British Pound (“GBP”) for its United Kingdombased operations and AustralianDollars (“AUD”) for its Australianbased operations. All assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date,stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operations items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate forthe period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income. Gains and losses resulting from thetranslations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).New and Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsIn January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 201602, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 201602”). This standard requires that a lessee recognize theassets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make leasepayments (the lease liability) and a rightofuse asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a termof 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets andlease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presentedusing a modified retrospective approach. ASU 201602 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning afterDecember 15, 2018. The Company evaluated the effects that the adoption of this new standard will have on its financial statements and does notexpect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial statements.In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 201807, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Sharebased Payment Accounting.” ASU 201807 aligns accounting for sharebased payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees underthe existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions. This update supersedes previous guidance for equitybased payments tononemployees under Subtopic 50550, “Equity – Equitybased Payments to Nonemployees.” It is effective for annual reporting periodsbeginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new standard will have on its financialstatements.Subsequent EventsThe Company has evaluated all transactions through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent disclosure consideration.NOTE 4 – RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITYAccording to UK tax law, the Company is allowed an R&D tax credit that reduces a company’s tax bill in the UK for expenses incurred in R&Dsubject to certain requirements.

The Company plans to raise additional capital to meet its future operating requirements until suchtime as the Company develops a recurring source of revenues, which is not expected for several years. The amount and timing of these capitalraises is subject to general market conditions. There are no guarantees that the company will be able to complete these capital raises.NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESUse of EstimatesPreparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requiresmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual resultsand outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.Cash and Cash EquivalentsFor purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of threemonths or less to be cash equivalents.From time to time, the Company may carry cash balances at financial institutions in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000.ReceivablesReceivables currently consist of an R&D tax credit receivable, valued added tax (“VAT”) receivable, joint development cost receivable and aGoods and Services tax (“GST”) receivable. The R&D tax credit receivable is recorded when R&D is incurred. At that time, the Company recordsa receivable for the amount of the credit it expects to receive based on the expenses incurred. The VAT receivable is recorded when theCompany receives an invoice with VAT related to it. The receivable is recorded for the amount expected to be returned when the VAT tax returnis filed. The joint development cost receivable is recorded when the Company incurs R&D expenses based on the amount it expects to receiveas a reimbursement per the Novamune agreement (see Note 4 for detailed explanation of the agreement). The GST tax receivable is recordedwhen the Company receives an invoice with GST tax related to it. The collectability of these receivables are evaluated periodically based on theactual R&D credit returns submitted, the VAT returns submitted, the GST returns submitted and the amounts received from Novamune. As ofDecember 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no trade receivables.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the asset hasalternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements; patent applications (principally legal fees), patentpurchases, and trademarks related to its cell line as intangible assets. Acquired inprocess research and development costs that do not havealternative uses are expensed as incurred. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets whentheir useful lives have been determined. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually orwhen a triggering event occurs that could indicate a potential impairment. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Companyrecognized impairment related to its intangible assets of $0.F8Table of ContentsBasic and Diluted Loss per ShareBasic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstandingcommon shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is antidilutive. For all periods presented, there is no difference in thenumber of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company’s net loss position.At December 31, 2018, the Company had 1,632,000 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options and 903,611potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.At December 31, 2017, the Company had 864,668 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.StockBased CompensationThe Company utilizes the BlackScholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock option awards at the date of grant,which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs andassumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our sharebased compensation. These assumptions are subjective andgenerally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, ordetermined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stockbased payment arrangements.The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. The Company values equity instruments and stock options granted to nonemployees at fair value using theBlackScholes optionpricing model. The value of nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlyingequity instruments vest and is recognized as an expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.The Company recognizes compensation expense, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicablevesting period.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development (“R&D”) costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development credits are recorded by the Company as areduction of research and development costs. Major components of research and development costs include cash compensation, stockbasedcompensation, depreciation and amortization expense on research and development property and equipment, costs of preclinical studies,clinical trials and related clinical manufacturing, costs of drug development, costs of materials and supplies, facilities cost, overhead costs,regulatory and compliance costs, and fees paid to consultants and other entities that conduct certain research and development activities onthe Company’s behalf.Income TaxesThe Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities arerecognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respectiveincome tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in incomein the period that includes the enactment date.F9Table of ContentsForeign Currency TranslationThe Company’s financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar (“$”), which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functionalcurrencies are the U.S. Dollar for its U.S. based operations and British Pound (“GBP”) for its United Kingdombased operations and AustralianDollars (“AUD”) for its Australianbased operations. All assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date,stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operations items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate forthe period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income. Gains and losses resulting from thetranslations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).New and Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsIn January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 201602, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 201602”). This standard requires that a lessee recognize theassets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make leasepayments (the lease liability) and a rightofuse asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a termof 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets andlease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presentedusing a modified retrospective approach. ASU 201602 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning afterDecember 15, 2018. The Company evaluated the effects that the adoption of this new standard will have on its financial statements and does notexpect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial statements.In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 201807, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Sharebased Payment Accounting.” ASU 201807 aligns accounting for sharebased payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees underthe existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions. This update supersedes previous guidance for equitybased payments tononemployees under Subtopic 50550, “Equity – Equitybased Payments to Nonemployees.” It is effective for annual reporting periodsbeginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new standard will have on its financialstatements.Subsequent EventsThe Company has evaluated all transactions through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent disclosure consideration.NOTE 4 – RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITYAccording to UK tax law, the Company is allowed an R&D tax credit that reduces a company’s tax bill in the UK for expenses incurred in R&Dsubject to certain requirements.

The Act moved from aworldwide tax system to a quasiterritorial tax system and was comprised of broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code including, but notlimited to, (1) reduced the U.S. tax rate from 35% to 21%; (2) added a deemed repatriation transition tax on certain foreign earnings and profits;(3) generally eliminated U.S. federal income taxes on dividends from foreign subsidiaries; (4) included certain income of controlled foreigncompanies in U.S. taxable income (“GILTI”); (5) created a new minimum tax referred to as a base erosion antiabuse income tax; (6) limited certainU.S. Federal research based credits; and (7) eliminated the domestic manufacturing deduction. The accounting for the reduction of deferred taxasset and the tax charge for the deemed repatriation transition tax is complete as of December 31, 2018. The rate change, along with certainimmaterial changes in tax basis resulting from The Act, resulted in a reduction of the Company’s deferred tax assets of approximately $71,000and a corresponding reduction in the valuation allowance.At December 31, 2018, the Company had a federal net operating loss carryforward of approximately $1.7 million.

The Company plans to raise additional capital to meet its future operating requirements until suchtime as the Company develops a recurring source of revenues, which is not expected for several years. The amount and timing of these capitalraises is subject to general market conditions. There are no guarantees that the company will be able to complete these capital raises.NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESUse of EstimatesPreparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requiresmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual resultsand outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.Cash and Cash EquivalentsFor purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of threemonths or less to be cash equivalents.From time to time, the Company may carry cash balances at financial institutions in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000.ReceivablesReceivables currently consist of an R&D tax credit receivable, valued added tax (“VAT”) receivable, joint development cost receivable and aGoods and Services tax (“GST”) receivable. The R&D tax credit receivable is recorded when R&D is incurred. At that time, the Company recordsa receivable for the amount of the credit it expects to receive based on the expenses incurred. The VAT receivable is recorded when theCompany receives an invoice with VAT related to it. The receivable is recorded for the amount expected to be returned when the VAT tax returnis filed. The joint development cost receivable is recorded when the Company incurs R&D expenses based on the amount it expects to receiveas a reimbursement per the Novamune agreement (see Note 4 for detailed explanation of the agreement). The GST tax receivable is recordedwhen the Company receives an invoice with GST tax related to it. The collectability of these receivables are evaluated periodically based on theactual R&D credit returns submitted, the VAT returns submitted, the GST returns submitted and the amounts received from Novamune. As ofDecember 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no trade receivables.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the asset hasalternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements; patent applications (principally legal fees), patentpurchases, and trademarks related to its cell line as intangible assets. Acquired inprocess research and development costs that do not havealternative uses are expensed as incurred. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets whentheir useful lives have been determined. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually orwhen a triggering event occurs that could indicate a potential impairment. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Companyrecognized impairment related to its intangible assets of $0.F8Table of ContentsBasic and Diluted Loss per ShareBasic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstandingcommon shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is antidilutive. For all periods presented, there is no difference in thenumber of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company’s net loss position.At December 31, 2018, the Company had 1,632,000 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options and 903,611potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.At December 31, 2017, the Company had 864,668 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.StockBased CompensationThe Company utilizes the BlackScholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock option awards at the date of grant,which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs andassumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our sharebased compensation. These assumptions are subjective andgenerally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, ordetermined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stockbased payment arrangements.The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. The Company values equity instruments and stock options granted to nonemployees at fair value using theBlackScholes optionpricing model. The value of nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlyingequity instruments vest and is recognized as an expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.The Company recognizes compensation expense, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicablevesting period.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development (“R&D”) costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development credits are recorded by the Company as areduction of research and development costs. Major components of research and development costs include cash compensation, stockbasedcompensation, depreciation and amortization expense on research and development property and equipment, costs of preclinical studies,clinical trials and related clinical manufacturing, costs of drug development, costs of materials and supplies, facilities cost, overhead costs,regulatory and compliance costs, and fees paid to consultants and other entities that conduct certain research and development activities onthe Company’s behalf.Income TaxesThe Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities arerecognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respectiveincome tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in incomein the period that includes the enactment date.F9Table of ContentsForeign Currency TranslationThe Company’s financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar (“$”), which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functionalcurrencies are the U.S. Dollar for its U.S. based operations and British Pound (“GBP”) for its United Kingdombased operations and AustralianDollars (“AUD”) for its Australianbased operations. All assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date,stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operations items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate forthe period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income. Gains and losses resulting from thetranslations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).New and Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsIn January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 201602, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 201602”). This standard requires that a lessee recognize theassets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make leasepayments (the lease liability) and a rightofuse asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a termof 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets andlease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presentedusing a modified retrospective approach. ASU 201602 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning afterDecember 15, 2018. The Company evaluated the effects that the adoption of this new standard will have on its financial statements and does notexpect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial statements.In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 201807, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Sharebased Payment Accounting.” ASU 201807 aligns accounting for sharebased payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees underthe existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions. This update supersedes previous guidance for equitybased payments tononemployees under Subtopic 50550, “Equity – Equitybased Payments to Nonemployees.” It is effective for annual reporting periodsbeginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new standard will have on its financialstatements.Subsequent EventsThe Company has evaluated all transactions through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent disclosure consideration.NOTE 4 – RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITYAccording to UK tax law, the Company is allowed an R&D tax credit that reduces a company’s tax bill in the UK for expenses incurred in R&Dsubject to certain requirements.

MossChief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary(Principal Financial and Accounting Officer)an additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingrequirements into the first quarter of 2020. The Company plans to raise additional capital to meet its future operating requirements until suchtime as the Company develops a recurring source of revenues, which is not expected for several years. The amount and timing of these capitalraises is subject to general market conditions. There are no guarantees that the company will be able to complete these capital raises.NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESUse of EstimatesPreparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requiresmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual resultsand outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.Cash and Cash EquivalentsFor purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of threemonths or less to be cash equivalents.From time to time, the Company may carry cash balances at financial institutions in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000.ReceivablesReceivables currently consist of an R&D tax credit receivable, valued added tax (“VAT”) receivable, joint development cost receivable and aGoods and Services tax (“GST”) receivable. The R&D tax credit receivable is recorded when R&D is incurred. At that time, the Company recordsa receivable for the amount of the credit it expects to receive based on the expenses incurred. The VAT receivable is recorded when theCompany receives an invoice with VAT related to it. The receivable is recorded for the amount expected to be returned when the VAT tax returnis filed. The joint development cost receivable is recorded when the Company incurs R&D expenses based on the amount it expects to receiveas a reimbursement per the Novamune agreement (see Note 4 for detailed explanation of the agreement). The GST tax receivable is recordedwhen the Company receives an invoice with GST tax related to it. The collectability of these receivables are evaluated periodically based on theactual R&D credit returns submitted, the VAT returns submitted, the GST returns submitted and the amounts received from Novamune. As ofDecember 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no trade receivables.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the asset hasalternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements; patent applications (principally legal fees), patentpurchases, and trademarks related to its cell line as intangible assets. Acquired inprocess research and development costs that do not havealternative uses are expensed as incurred. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets whentheir useful lives have been determined. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually orwhen a triggering event occurs that could indicate a potential impairment. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Companyrecognized impairment related to its intangible assets of $0.F8Table of ContentsBasic and Diluted Loss per ShareBasic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstandingcommon shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is antidilutive. For all periods presented, there is no difference in thenumber of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company’s net loss position.At December 31, 2018, the Company had 1,632,000 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options and 903,611potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.At December 31, 2017, the Company had 864,668 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.StockBased CompensationThe Company utilizes the BlackScholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock option awards at the date of grant,which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs andassumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our sharebased compensation. These assumptions are subjective andgenerally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, ordetermined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stockbased payment arrangements.The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. The Company values equity instruments and stock options granted to nonemployees at fair value using theBlackScholes optionpricing model. The value of nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlyingequity instruments vest and is recognized as an expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.The Company recognizes compensation expense, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicablevesting period.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development (“R&D”) costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development credits are recorded by the Company as areduction of research and development costs. Major components of research and development costs include cash compensation, stockbasedcompensation, depreciation and amortization expense on research and development property and equipment, costs of preclinical studies,clinical trials and related clinical manufacturing, costs of drug development, costs of materials and supplies, facilities cost, overhead costs,regulatory and compliance costs, and fees paid to consultants and other entities that conduct certain research and development activities onthe Company’s behalf.Income TaxesThe Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities arerecognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respectiveincome tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in incomein the period that includes the enactment date.F9Table of ContentsForeign Currency TranslationThe Company’s financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar (“$”), which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functionalcurrencies are the U.S. Dollar for its U.S. based operations and British Pound (“GBP”) for its United Kingdombased operations and AustralianDollars (“AUD”) for its Australianbased operations. All assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date,stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operations items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate forthe period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income. Gains and losses resulting from thetranslations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).New and Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsIn January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 201602, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 201602”). This standard requires that a lessee recognize theassets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make leasepayments (the lease liability) and a rightofuse asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a termof 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets andlease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presentedusing a modified retrospective approach. ASU 201602 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning afterDecember 15, 2018. The Company evaluated the effects that the adoption of this new standard will have on its financial statements and does notexpect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial statements.In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 201807, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Sharebased Payment Accounting.” ASU 201807 aligns accounting for sharebased payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees underthe existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions. This update supersedes previous guidance for equitybased payments tononemployees under Subtopic 50550, “Equity – Equitybased Payments to Nonemployees.” It is effective for annual reporting periodsbeginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new standard will have on its financialstatements.Subsequent EventsThe Company has evaluated all transactions through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent disclosure consideration.NOTE 4 – RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITYAccording to UK tax law, the Company is allowed an R&D tax credit that reduces a company’s tax bill in the UK for expenses incurred in R&Dsubject to certain requirements.

MossChief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary(Principal Financial and Accounting Officer)an additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingrequirements into the first quarter of 2020. The Company plans to raise additional capital to meet its future operating requirements until suchtime as the Company develops a recurring source of revenues, which is not expected for several years. The amount and timing of these capitalraises is subject to general market conditions. There are no guarantees that the company will be able to complete these capital raises.NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESUse of EstimatesPreparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requiresmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual resultsand outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.Cash and Cash EquivalentsFor purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of threemonths or less to be cash equivalents.From time to time, the Company may carry cash balances at financial institutions in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000.ReceivablesReceivables currently consist of an R&D tax credit receivable, valued added tax (“VAT”) receivable, joint development cost receivable and aGoods and Services tax (“GST”) receivable. The R&D tax credit receivable is recorded when R&D is incurred. At that time, the Company recordsa receivable for the amount of the credit it expects to receive based on the expenses incurred. The VAT receivable is recorded when theCompany receives an invoice with VAT related to it. The receivable is recorded for the amount expected to be returned when the VAT tax returnis filed. The joint development cost receivable is recorded when the Company incurs R&D expenses based on the amount it expects to receiveas a reimbursement per the Novamune agreement (see Note 4 for detailed explanation of the agreement). The GST tax receivable is recordedwhen the Company receives an invoice with GST tax related to it. The collectability of these receivables are evaluated periodically based on theactual R&D credit returns submitted, the VAT returns submitted, the GST returns submitted and the amounts received from Novamune. As ofDecember 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no trade receivables.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the asset hasalternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements; patent applications (principally legal fees), patentpurchases, and trademarks related to its cell line as intangible assets. Acquired inprocess research and development costs that do not havealternative uses are expensed as incurred. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets whentheir useful lives have been determined. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually orwhen a triggering event occurs that could indicate a potential impairment. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Companyrecognized impairment related to its intangible assets of $0.F8Table of ContentsBasic and Diluted Loss per ShareBasic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstandingcommon shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is antidilutive. For all periods presented, there is no difference in thenumber of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company’s net loss position.At December 31, 2018, the Company had 1,632,000 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options and 903,611potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.At December 31, 2017, the Company had 864,668 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.StockBased CompensationThe Company utilizes the BlackScholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock option awards at the date of grant,which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs andassumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our sharebased compensation. These assumptions are subjective andgenerally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, ordetermined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stockbased payment arrangements.The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. The Company values equity instruments and stock options granted to nonemployees at fair value using theBlackScholes optionpricing model. The value of nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlyingequity instruments vest and is recognized as an expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.The Company recognizes compensation expense, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicablevesting period.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development (“R&D”) costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development credits are recorded by the Company as areduction of research and development costs. Major components of research and development costs include cash compensation, stockbasedcompensation, depreciation and amortization expense on research and development property and equipment, costs of preclinical studies,clinical trials and related clinical manufacturing, costs of drug development, costs of materials and supplies, facilities cost, overhead costs,regulatory and compliance costs, and fees paid to consultants and other entities that conduct certain research and development activities onthe Company’s behalf.Income TaxesThe Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities arerecognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respectiveincome tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in incomein the period that includes the enactment date.F9Table of ContentsForeign Currency TranslationThe Company’s financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar (“$”), which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functionalcurrencies are the U.S. Dollar for its U.S. based operations and British Pound (“GBP”) for its United Kingdombased operations and AustralianDollars (“AUD”) for its Australianbased operations. All assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date,stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operations items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate forthe period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income. Gains and losses resulting from thetranslations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).New and Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsIn January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 201602, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 201602”). This standard requires that a lessee recognize theassets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make leasepayments (the lease liability) and a rightofuse asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a termof 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets andlease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presentedusing a modified retrospective approach. ASU 201602 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning afterDecember 15, 2018. The Company evaluated the effects that the adoption of this new standard will have on its financial statements and does notexpect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial statements.In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 201807, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Sharebased Payment Accounting.” ASU 201807 aligns accounting for sharebased payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees underthe existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions.

The Company plans to raise additional capital to meet its future operating requirements until suchtime as the Company develops a recurring source of revenues, which is not expected for several years. The amount and timing of these capitalraises is subject to general market conditions. There are no guarantees that the company will be able to complete these capital raises.NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESUse of EstimatesPreparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requiresmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual resultsand outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.Cash and Cash EquivalentsFor purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of threemonths or less to be cash equivalents.From time to time, the Company may carry cash balances at financial institutions in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000.ReceivablesReceivables currently consist of an R&D tax credit receivable, valued added tax (“VAT”) receivable, joint development cost receivable and aGoods and Services tax (“GST”) receivable. The R&D tax credit receivable is recorded when R&D is incurred. At that time, the Company recordsa receivable for the amount of the credit it expects to receive based on the expenses incurred. The VAT receivable is recorded when theCompany receives an invoice with VAT related to it. The receivable is recorded for the amount expected to be returned when the VAT tax returnis filed. The joint development cost receivable is recorded when the Company incurs R&D expenses based on the amount it expects to receiveas a reimbursement per the Novamune agreement (see Note 4 for detailed explanation of the agreement). The GST tax receivable is recordedwhen the Company receives an invoice with GST tax related to it. The collectability of these receivables are evaluated periodically based on theactual R&D credit returns submitted, the VAT returns submitted, the GST returns submitted and the amounts received from Novamune. As ofDecember 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no trade receivables.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the asset hasalternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements; patent applications (principally legal fees), patentpurchases, and trademarks related to its cell line as intangible assets. Acquired inprocess research and development costs that do not havealternative uses are expensed as incurred. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets whentheir useful lives have been determined. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually orwhen a triggering event occurs that could indicate a potential impairment. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Companyrecognized impairment related to its intangible assets of $0.F8Table of ContentsBasic and Diluted Loss per ShareBasic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstandingcommon shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is antidilutive. For all periods presented, there is no difference in thenumber of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company’s net loss position.At December 31, 2018, the Company had 1,632,000 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options and 903,611potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.At December 31, 2017, the Company had 864,668 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.StockBased CompensationThe Company utilizes the BlackScholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock option awards at the date of grant,which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs andassumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our sharebased compensation. These assumptions are subjective andgenerally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, ordetermined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stockbased payment arrangements.The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. The Company values equity instruments and stock options granted to nonemployees at fair value using theBlackScholes optionpricing model. The value of nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlyingequity instruments vest and is recognized as an expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.The Company recognizes compensation expense, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicablevesting period.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development (“R&D”) costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development credits are recorded by the Company as areduction of research and development costs. Major components of research and development costs include cash compensation, stockbasedcompensation, depreciation and amortization expense on research and development property and equipment, costs of preclinical studies,clinical trials and related clinical manufacturing, costs of drug development, costs of materials and supplies, facilities cost, overhead costs,regulatory and compliance costs, and fees paid to consultants and other entities that conduct certain research and development activities onthe Company’s behalf.Income TaxesThe Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities arerecognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respectiveincome tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in incomein the period that includes the enactment date.F9Table of ContentsForeign Currency TranslationThe Company’s financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar (“$”), which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functionalcurrencies are the U.S. Dollar for its U.S. based operations and British Pound (“GBP”) for its United Kingdombased operations and AustralianDollars (“AUD”) for its Australianbased operations. All assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date,stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operations items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate forthe period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income. Gains and losses resulting from thetranslations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).New and Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsIn January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 201602, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 201602”). This standard requires that a lessee recognize theassets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make leasepayments (the lease liability) and a rightofuse asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a termof 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets andlease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presentedusing a modified retrospective approach. ASU 201602 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning afterDecember 15, 2018. The Company evaluated the effects that the adoption of this new standard will have on its financial statements and does notexpect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial statements.In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 201807, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Sharebased Payment Accounting.” ASU 201807 aligns accounting for sharebased payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees underthe existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions. This update supersedes previous guidance for equitybased payments tononemployees under Subtopic 50550, “Equity – Equitybased Payments to Nonemployees.” It is effective for annual reporting periodsbeginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new standard will have on its financialstatements.Subsequent EventsThe Company has evaluated all transactions through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent disclosure consideration.NOTE 4 – RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITYAccording to UK tax law, the Company is allowed an R&D tax credit that reduces a company’s tax bill in the UK for expenses incurred in R&Dsubject to certain requirements.

The Act moved from aworldwide tax system to a quasiterritorial tax system and was comprised of broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code including, but notlimited to, (1) reduced the U.S. tax rate from 35% to 21%; (2) added a deemed repatriation transition tax on certain foreign earnings and profits;(3) generally eliminated U.S. federal income taxes on dividends from foreign subsidiaries; (4) included certain income of controlled foreigncompanies in U.S. taxable income (“GILTI”); (5) created a new minimum tax referred to as a base erosion antiabuse income tax; (6) limited certainU.S. Federal research based credits; and (7) eliminated the domestic manufacturing deduction. The accounting for the reduction of deferred taxasset and the tax charge for the deemed repatriation transition tax is complete as of December 31, 2018. The rate change, along with certainimmaterial changes in tax basis resulting from The Act, resulted in a reduction of the Company’s deferred tax assets of approximately $71,000and a corresponding reduction in the valuation allowance.At December 31, 2018, the Company had a federal net operating loss carryforward of approximately $1.7 million.

The Company plans to raise additional capital to meet its future operating requirements until suchtime as the Company develops a recurring source of revenues, which is not expected for several years. The amount and timing of these capitalraises is subject to general market conditions. There are no guarantees that the company will be able to complete these capital raises.NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESUse of EstimatesPreparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requiresmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual resultsand outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.Cash and Cash EquivalentsFor purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of threemonths or less to be cash equivalents.From time to time, the Company may carry cash balances at financial institutions in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000.ReceivablesReceivables currently consist of an R&D tax credit receivable, valued added tax (“VAT”) receivable, joint development cost receivable and aGoods and Services tax (“GST”) receivable. The R&D tax credit receivable is recorded when R&D is incurred. At that time, the Company recordsa receivable for the amount of the credit it expects to receive based on the expenses incurred. The VAT receivable is recorded when theCompany receives an invoice with VAT related to it. The receivable is recorded for the amount expected to be returned when the VAT tax returnis filed. The joint development cost receivable is recorded when the Company incurs R&D expenses based on the amount it expects to receiveas a reimbursement per the Novamune agreement (see Note 4 for detailed explanation of the agreement). The GST tax receivable is recordedwhen the Company receives an invoice with GST tax related to it. The collectability of these receivables are evaluated periodically based on theactual R&D credit returns submitted, the VAT returns submitted, the GST returns submitted and the amounts received from Novamune. As ofDecember 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no trade receivables.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the asset hasalternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements; patent applications (principally legal fees), patentpurchases, and trademarks related to its cell line as intangible assets. Acquired inprocess research and development costs that do not havealternative uses are expensed as incurred. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets whentheir useful lives have been determined. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually orwhen a triggering event occurs that could indicate a potential impairment. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Companyrecognized impairment related to its intangible assets of $0.F8Table of ContentsBasic and Diluted Loss per ShareBasic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstandingcommon shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is antidilutive. For all periods presented, there is no difference in thenumber of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company’s net loss position.At December 31, 2018, the Company had 1,632,000 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options and 903,611potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.At December 31, 2017, the Company had 864,668 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.StockBased CompensationThe Company utilizes the BlackScholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock option awards at the date of grant,which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs andassumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our sharebased compensation. These assumptions are subjective andgenerally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, ordetermined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stockbased payment arrangements.The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. The Company values equity instruments and stock options granted to nonemployees at fair value using theBlackScholes optionpricing model. The value of nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlyingequity instruments vest and is recognized as an expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.The Company recognizes compensation expense, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicablevesting period.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development (“R&D”) costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development credits are recorded by the Company as areduction of research and development costs. Major components of research and development costs include cash compensation, stockbasedcompensation, depreciation and amortization expense on research and development property and equipment, costs of preclinical studies,clinical trials and related clinical manufacturing, costs of drug development, costs of materials and supplies, facilities cost, overhead costs,regulatory and compliance costs, and fees paid to consultants and other entities that conduct certain research and development activities onthe Company’s behalf.Income TaxesThe Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities arerecognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respectiveincome tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in incomein the period that includes the enactment date.F9Table of ContentsForeign Currency TranslationThe Company’s financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar (“$”), which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functionalcurrencies are the U.S. Dollar for its U.S. based operations and British Pound (“GBP”) for its United Kingdombased operations and AustralianDollars (“AUD”) for its Australianbased operations. All assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date,stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operations items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate forthe period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income. Gains and losses resulting from thetranslations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).New and Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsIn January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 201602, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 201602”). This standard requires that a lessee recognize theassets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make leasepayments (the lease liability) and a rightofuse asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a termof 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets andlease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presentedusing a modified retrospective approach. ASU 201602 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning afterDecember 15, 2018. The Company evaluated the effects that the adoption of this new standard will have on its financial statements and does notexpect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial statements.In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 201807, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Sharebased Payment Accounting.” ASU 201807 aligns accounting for sharebased payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees underthe existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions. This update supersedes previous guidance for equitybased payments tononemployees under Subtopic 50550, “Equity – Equitybased Payments to Nonemployees.” It is effective for annual reporting periodsbeginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new standard will have on its financialstatements.Subsequent EventsThe Company has evaluated all transactions through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent disclosure consideration.NOTE 4 – RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITYAccording to UK tax law, the Company is allowed an R&D tax credit that reduces a company’s tax bill in the UK for expenses incurred in R&Dsubject to certain requirements.

MossChief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary(Principal Financial and Accounting Officer)an additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingrequirements into the first quarter of 2020. The Company plans to raise additional capital to meet its future operating requirements until suchtime as the Company develops a recurring source of revenues, which is not expected for several years. The amount and timing of these capitalraises is subject to general market conditions. There are no guarantees that the company will be able to complete these capital raises.NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESUse of EstimatesPreparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requiresmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual resultsand outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.Cash and Cash EquivalentsFor purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of threemonths or less to be cash equivalents.From time to time, the Company may carry cash balances at financial institutions in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000.ReceivablesReceivables currently consist of an R&D tax credit receivable, valued added tax (“VAT”) receivable, joint development cost receivable and aGoods and Services tax (“GST”) receivable. The R&D tax credit receivable is recorded when R&D is incurred. At that time, the Company recordsa receivable for the amount of the credit it expects to receive based on the expenses incurred. The VAT receivable is recorded when theCompany receives an invoice with VAT related to it. The receivable is recorded for the amount expected to be returned when the VAT tax returnis filed. The joint development cost receivable is recorded when the Company incurs R&D expenses based on the amount it expects to receiveas a reimbursement per the Novamune agreement (see Note 4 for detailed explanation of the agreement). The GST tax receivable is recordedwhen the Company receives an invoice with GST tax related to it. The collectability of these receivables are evaluated periodically based on theactual R&D credit returns submitted, the VAT returns submitted, the GST returns submitted and the amounts received from Novamune. As ofDecember 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no trade receivables.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the asset hasalternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements; patent applications (principally legal fees), patentpurchases, and trademarks related to its cell line as intangible assets. Acquired inprocess research and development costs that do not havealternative uses are expensed as incurred. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets whentheir useful lives have been determined. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually orwhen a triggering event occurs that could indicate a potential impairment. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Companyrecognized impairment related to its intangible assets of $0.F8Table of ContentsBasic and Diluted Loss per ShareBasic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstandingcommon shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is antidilutive. For all periods presented, there is no difference in thenumber of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company’s net loss position.At December 31, 2018, the Company had 1,632,000 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options and 903,611potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.At December 31, 2017, the Company had 864,668 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.StockBased CompensationThe Company utilizes the BlackScholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock option awards at the date of grant,which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs andassumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our sharebased compensation. These assumptions are subjective andgenerally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, ordetermined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stockbased payment arrangements.The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. The Company values equity instruments and stock options granted to nonemployees at fair value using theBlackScholes optionpricing model. The value of nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlyingequity instruments vest and is recognized as an expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.The Company recognizes compensation expense, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicablevesting period.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development (“R&D”) costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development credits are recorded by the Company as areduction of research and development costs. Major components of research and development costs include cash compensation, stockbasedcompensation, depreciation and amortization expense on research and development property and equipment, costs of preclinical studies,clinical trials and related clinical manufacturing, costs of drug development, costs of materials and supplies, facilities cost, overhead costs,regulatory and compliance costs, and fees paid to consultants and other entities that conduct certain research and development activities onthe Company’s behalf.Income TaxesThe Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities arerecognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respectiveincome tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in incomein the period that includes the enactment date.F9Table of ContentsForeign Currency TranslationThe Company’s financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar (“$”), which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functionalcurrencies are the U.S. Dollar for its U.S. based operations and British Pound (“GBP”) for its United Kingdombased operations and AustralianDollars (“AUD”) for its Australianbased operations. All assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date,stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operations items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate forthe period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income. Gains and losses resulting from thetranslations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).New and Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsIn January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 201602, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 201602”). This standard requires that a lessee recognize theassets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make leasepayments (the lease liability) and a rightofuse asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a termof 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets andlease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presentedusing a modified retrospective approach. ASU 201602 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning afterDecember 15, 2018. The Company evaluated the effects that the adoption of this new standard will have on its financial statements and does notexpect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial statements.In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 201807, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Sharebased Payment Accounting.” ASU 201807 aligns accounting for sharebased payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees underthe existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions. This update supersedes previous guidance for equitybased payments tononemployees under Subtopic 50550, “Equity – Equitybased Payments to Nonemployees.” It is effective for annual reporting periodsbeginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new standard will have on its financialstatements.Subsequent EventsThe Company has evaluated all transactions through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent disclosure consideration.NOTE 4 – RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITYAccording to UK tax law, the Company is allowed an R&D tax credit that reduces a company’s tax bill in the UK for expenses incurred in R&Dsubject to certain requirements.

MossChief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary(Principal Financial and Accounting Officer)an additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingrequirements into the first quarter of 2020. The Company plans to raise additional capital to meet its future operating requirements until suchtime as the Company develops a recurring source of revenues, which is not expected for several years. The amount and timing of these capitalraises is subject to general market conditions. There are no guarantees that the company will be able to complete these capital raises.NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESUse of EstimatesPreparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requiresmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual resultsand outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.Cash and Cash EquivalentsFor purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of threemonths or less to be cash equivalents.From time to time, the Company may carry cash balances at financial institutions in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000.ReceivablesReceivables currently consist of an R&D tax credit receivable, valued added tax (“VAT”) receivable, joint development cost receivable and aGoods and Services tax (“GST”) receivable. The R&D tax credit receivable is recorded when R&D is incurred. At that time, the Company recordsa receivable for the amount of the credit it expects to receive based on the expenses incurred. The VAT receivable is recorded when theCompany receives an invoice with VAT related to it. The receivable is recorded for the amount expected to be returned when the VAT tax returnis filed. The joint development cost receivable is recorded when the Company incurs R&D expenses based on the amount it expects to receiveas a reimbursement per the Novamune agreement (see Note 4 for detailed explanation of the agreement). The GST tax receivable is recordedwhen the Company receives an invoice with GST tax related to it. The collectability of these receivables are evaluated periodically based on theactual R&D credit returns submitted, the VAT returns submitted, the GST returns submitted and the amounts received from Novamune. As ofDecember 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no trade receivables.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the asset hasalternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements; patent applications (principally legal fees), patentpurchases, and trademarks related to its cell line as intangible assets. Acquired inprocess research and development costs that do not havealternative uses are expensed as incurred. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets whentheir useful lives have been determined. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually orwhen a triggering event occurs that could indicate a potential impairment. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Companyrecognized impairment related to its intangible assets of $0.F8Table of ContentsBasic and Diluted Loss per ShareBasic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstandingcommon shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is antidilutive. For all periods presented, there is no difference in thenumber of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company’s net loss position.At December 31, 2018, the Company had 1,632,000 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options and 903,611potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.At December 31, 2017, the Company had 864,668 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.StockBased CompensationThe Company utilizes the BlackScholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock option awards at the date of grant,which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs andassumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our sharebased compensation. These assumptions are subjective andgenerally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, ordetermined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stockbased payment arrangements.The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. The Company values equity instruments and stock options granted to nonemployees at fair value using theBlackScholes optionpricing model. The value of nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlyingequity instruments vest and is recognized as an expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.The Company recognizes compensation expense, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicablevesting period.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development (“R&D”) costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development credits are recorded by the Company as areduction of research and development costs. Major components of research and development costs include cash compensation, stockbasedcompensation, depreciation and amortization expense on research and development property and equipment, costs of preclinical studies,clinical trials and related clinical manufacturing, costs of drug development, costs of materials and supplies, facilities cost, overhead costs,regulatory and compliance costs, and fees paid to consultants and other entities that conduct certain research and development activities onthe Company’s behalf.Income TaxesThe Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities arerecognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respectiveincome tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in incomein the period that includes the enactment date.F9Table of ContentsForeign Currency TranslationThe Company’s financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar (“$”), which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functionalcurrencies are the U.S. Dollar for its U.S. based operations and British Pound (“GBP”) for its United Kingdombased operations and AustralianDollars (“AUD”) for its Australianbased operations. All assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date,stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operations items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate forthe period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income. Gains and losses resulting from thetranslations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).New and Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsIn January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 201602, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 201602”). This standard requires that a lessee recognize theassets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make leasepayments (the lease liability) and a rightofuse asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a termof 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets andlease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presentedusing a modified retrospective approach. ASU 201602 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning afterDecember 15, 2018. The Company evaluated the effects that the adoption of this new standard will have on its financial statements and does notexpect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial statements.In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 201807, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Sharebased Payment Accounting.” ASU 201807 aligns accounting for sharebased payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees underthe existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions.

The Company plans to raise additional capital to meet its future operating requirements until suchtime as the Company develops a recurring source of revenues, which is not expected for several years. The amount and timing of these capitalraises is subject to general market conditions. There are no guarantees that the company will be able to complete these capital raises.NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESUse of EstimatesPreparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requiresmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual resultsand outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.Cash and Cash EquivalentsFor purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of threemonths or less to be cash equivalents.From time to time, the Company may carry cash balances at financial institutions in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000.ReceivablesReceivables currently consist of an R&D tax credit receivable, valued added tax (“VAT”) receivable, joint development cost receivable and aGoods and Services tax (“GST”) receivable. The R&D tax credit receivable is recorded when R&D is incurred. At that time, the Company recordsa receivable for the amount of the credit it expects to receive based on the expenses incurred. The VAT receivable is recorded when theCompany receives an invoice with VAT related to it. The receivable is recorded for the amount expected to be returned when the VAT tax returnis filed. The joint development cost receivable is recorded when the Company incurs R&D expenses based on the amount it expects to receiveas a reimbursement per the Novamune agreement (see Note 4 for detailed explanation of the agreement). The GST tax receivable is recordedwhen the Company receives an invoice with GST tax related to it. The collectability of these receivables are evaluated periodically based on theactual R&D credit returns submitted, the VAT returns submitted, the GST returns submitted and the amounts received from Novamune. As ofDecember 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no trade receivables.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the asset hasalternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements; patent applications (principally legal fees), patentpurchases, and trademarks related to its cell line as intangible assets. Acquired inprocess research and development costs that do not havealternative uses are expensed as incurred. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets whentheir useful lives have been determined. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually orwhen a triggering event occurs that could indicate a potential impairment. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Companyrecognized impairment related to its intangible assets of $0.F8Table of ContentsBasic and Diluted Loss per ShareBasic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstandingcommon shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is antidilutive. For all periods presented, there is no difference in thenumber of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company’s net loss position.At December 31, 2018, the Company had 1,632,000 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options and 903,611potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.At December 31, 2017, the Company had 864,668 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.StockBased CompensationThe Company utilizes the BlackScholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock option awards at the date of grant,which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs andassumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our sharebased compensation. These assumptions are subjective andgenerally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, ordetermined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stockbased payment arrangements.The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. The Company values equity instruments and stock options granted to nonemployees at fair value using theBlackScholes optionpricing model. The value of nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlyingequity instruments vest and is recognized as an expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.The Company recognizes compensation expense, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicablevesting period.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development (“R&D”) costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development credits are recorded by the Company as areduction of research and development costs. Major components of research and development costs include cash compensation, stockbasedcompensation, depreciation and amortization expense on research and development property and equipment, costs of preclinical studies,clinical trials and related clinical manufacturing, costs of drug development, costs of materials and supplies, facilities cost, overhead costs,regulatory and compliance costs, and fees paid to consultants and other entities that conduct certain research and development activities onthe Company’s behalf.Income TaxesThe Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities arerecognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respectiveincome tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in incomein the period that includes the enactment date.F9Table of ContentsForeign Currency TranslationThe Company’s financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar (“$”), which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functionalcurrencies are the U.S. Dollar for its U.S. based operations and British Pound (“GBP”) for its United Kingdombased operations and AustralianDollars (“AUD”) for its Australianbased operations. All assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date,stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operations items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate forthe period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income. Gains and losses resulting from thetranslations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).New and Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsIn January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 201602, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 201602”). This standard requires that a lessee recognize theassets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make leasepayments (the lease liability) and a rightofuse asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a termof 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets andlease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presentedusing a modified retrospective approach. ASU 201602 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning afterDecember 15, 2018. The Company evaluated the effects that the adoption of this new standard will have on its financial statements and does notexpect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial statements.In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 201807, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Sharebased Payment Accounting.” ASU 201807 aligns accounting for sharebased payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees underthe existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions. This update supersedes previous guidance for equitybased payments tononemployees under Subtopic 50550, “Equity – Equitybased Payments to Nonemployees.” It is effective for annual reporting periodsbeginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new standard will have on its financialstatements.Subsequent EventsThe Company has evaluated all transactions through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent disclosure consideration.NOTE 4 – RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITYAccording to UK tax law, the Company is allowed an R&D tax credit that reduces a company’s tax bill in the UK for expenses incurred in R&Dsubject to certain requirements.

The Act moved from aworldwide tax system to a quasiterritorial tax system and was comprised of broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code including, but notlimited to, (1) reduced the U.S. tax rate from 35% to 21%; (2) added a deemed repatriation transition tax on certain foreign earnings and profits;(3) generally eliminated U.S. federal income taxes on dividends from foreign subsidiaries; (4) included certain income of controlled foreigncompanies in U.S. taxable income (“GILTI”); (5) created a new minimum tax referred to as a base erosion antiabuse income tax; (6) limited certainU.S. Federal research based credits; and (7) eliminated the domestic manufacturing deduction. The accounting for the reduction of deferred taxasset and the tax charge for the deemed repatriation transition tax is complete as of December 31, 2018. The rate change, along with certainimmaterial changes in tax basis resulting from The Act, resulted in a reduction of the Company’s deferred tax assets of approximately $71,000and a corresponding reduction in the valuation allowance.At December 31, 2018, the Company had a federal net operating loss carryforward of approximately $1.7 million.

The Company plans to raise additional capital to meet its future operating requirements until suchtime as the Company develops a recurring source of revenues, which is not expected for several years. The amount and timing of these capitalraises is subject to general market conditions. There are no guarantees that the company will be able to complete these capital raises.NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESUse of EstimatesPreparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requiresmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual resultsand outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.Cash and Cash EquivalentsFor purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of threemonths or less to be cash equivalents.From time to time, the Company may carry cash balances at financial institutions in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000.ReceivablesReceivables currently consist of an R&D tax credit receivable, valued added tax (“VAT”) receivable, joint development cost receivable and aGoods and Services tax (“GST”) receivable. The R&D tax credit receivable is recorded when R&D is incurred. At that time, the Company recordsa receivable for the amount of the credit it expects to receive based on the expenses incurred. The VAT receivable is recorded when theCompany receives an invoice with VAT related to it. The receivable is recorded for the amount expected to be returned when the VAT tax returnis filed. The joint development cost receivable is recorded when the Company incurs R&D expenses based on the amount it expects to receiveas a reimbursement per the Novamune agreement (see Note 4 for detailed explanation of the agreement). The GST tax receivable is recordedwhen the Company receives an invoice with GST tax related to it. The collectability of these receivables are evaluated periodically based on theactual R&D credit returns submitted, the VAT returns submitted, the GST returns submitted and the amounts received from Novamune. As ofDecember 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no trade receivables.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the asset hasalternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements; patent applications (principally legal fees), patentpurchases, and trademarks related to its cell line as intangible assets. Acquired inprocess research and development costs that do not havealternative uses are expensed as incurred. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets whentheir useful lives have been determined. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually orwhen a triggering event occurs that could indicate a potential impairment. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Companyrecognized impairment related to its intangible assets of $0.F8Table of ContentsBasic and Diluted Loss per ShareBasic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstandingcommon shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is antidilutive. For all periods presented, there is no difference in thenumber of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company’s net loss position.At December 31, 2018, the Company had 1,632,000 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options and 903,611potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.At December 31, 2017, the Company had 864,668 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.StockBased CompensationThe Company utilizes the BlackScholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock option awards at the date of grant,which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs andassumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our sharebased compensation. These assumptions are subjective andgenerally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, ordetermined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stockbased payment arrangements.The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. The Company values equity instruments and stock options granted to nonemployees at fair value using theBlackScholes optionpricing model. The value of nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlyingequity instruments vest and is recognized as an expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.The Company recognizes compensation expense, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicablevesting period.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development (“R&D”) costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development credits are recorded by the Company as areduction of research and development costs. Major components of research and development costs include cash compensation, stockbasedcompensation, depreciation and amortization expense on research and development property and equipment, costs of preclinical studies,clinical trials and related clinical manufacturing, costs of drug development, costs of materials and supplies, facilities cost, overhead costs,regulatory and compliance costs, and fees paid to consultants and other entities that conduct certain research and development activities onthe Company’s behalf.Income TaxesThe Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities arerecognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respectiveincome tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in incomein the period that includes the enactment date.F9Table of ContentsForeign Currency TranslationThe Company’s financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar (“$”), which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functionalcurrencies are the U.S. Dollar for its U.S. based operations and British Pound (“GBP”) for its United Kingdombased operations and AustralianDollars (“AUD”) for its Australianbased operations. All assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date,stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operations items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate forthe period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income. Gains and losses resulting from thetranslations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).New and Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsIn January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 201602, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 201602”). This standard requires that a lessee recognize theassets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make leasepayments (the lease liability) and a rightofuse asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a termof 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets andlease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presentedusing a modified retrospective approach. ASU 201602 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning afterDecember 15, 2018. The Company evaluated the effects that the adoption of this new standard will have on its financial statements and does notexpect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial statements.In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 201807, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Sharebased Payment Accounting.” ASU 201807 aligns accounting for sharebased payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees underthe existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions. This update supersedes previous guidance for equitybased payments tononemployees under Subtopic 50550, “Equity – Equitybased Payments to Nonemployees.” It is effective for annual reporting periodsbeginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new standard will have on its financialstatements.Subsequent EventsThe Company has evaluated all transactions through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent disclosure consideration.NOTE 4 – RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITYAccording to UK tax law, the Company is allowed an R&D tax credit that reduces a company’s tax bill in the UK for expenses incurred in R&Dsubject to certain requirements.

MossChief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary(Principal Financial and Accounting Officer)an additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingrequirements into the first quarter of 2020. The Company plans to raise additional capital to meet its future operating requirements until suchtime as the Company develops a recurring source of revenues, which is not expected for several years. The amount and timing of these capitalraises is subject to general market conditions. There are no guarantees that the company will be able to complete these capital raises.NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESUse of EstimatesPreparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requiresmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual resultsand outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.Cash and Cash EquivalentsFor purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of threemonths or less to be cash equivalents.From time to time, the Company may carry cash balances at financial institutions in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000.ReceivablesReceivables currently consist of an R&D tax credit receivable, valued added tax (“VAT”) receivable, joint development cost receivable and aGoods and Services tax (“GST”) receivable. The R&D tax credit receivable is recorded when R&D is incurred. At that time, the Company recordsa receivable for the amount of the credit it expects to receive based on the expenses incurred. The VAT receivable is recorded when theCompany receives an invoice with VAT related to it. The receivable is recorded for the amount expected to be returned when the VAT tax returnis filed. The joint development cost receivable is recorded when the Company incurs R&D expenses based on the amount it expects to receiveas a reimbursement per the Novamune agreement (see Note 4 for detailed explanation of the agreement). The GST tax receivable is recordedwhen the Company receives an invoice with GST tax related to it. The collectability of these receivables are evaluated periodically based on theactual R&D credit returns submitted, the VAT returns submitted, the GST returns submitted and the amounts received from Novamune. As ofDecember 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no trade receivables.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the asset hasalternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements; patent applications (principally legal fees), patentpurchases, and trademarks related to its cell line as intangible assets. Acquired inprocess research and development costs that do not havealternative uses are expensed as incurred. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets whentheir useful lives have been determined. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually orwhen a triggering event occurs that could indicate a potential impairment. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Companyrecognized impairment related to its intangible assets of $0.F8Table of ContentsBasic and Diluted Loss per ShareBasic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstandingcommon shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is antidilutive. For all periods presented, there is no difference in thenumber of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company’s net loss position.At December 31, 2018, the Company had 1,632,000 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options and 903,611potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.At December 31, 2017, the Company had 864,668 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.StockBased CompensationThe Company utilizes the BlackScholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock option awards at the date of grant,which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs andassumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our sharebased compensation. These assumptions are subjective andgenerally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, ordetermined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stockbased payment arrangements.The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. The Company values equity instruments and stock options granted to nonemployees at fair value using theBlackScholes optionpricing model. The value of nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlyingequity instruments vest and is recognized as an expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.The Company recognizes compensation expense, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicablevesting period.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development (“R&D”) costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development credits are recorded by the Company as areduction of research and development costs. Major components of research and development costs include cash compensation, stockbasedcompensation, depreciation and amortization expense on research and development property and equipment, costs of preclinical studies,clinical trials and related clinical manufacturing, costs of drug development, costs of materials and supplies, facilities cost, overhead costs,regulatory and compliance costs, and fees paid to consultants and other entities that conduct certain research and development activities onthe Company’s behalf.Income TaxesThe Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities arerecognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respectiveincome tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in incomein the period that includes the enactment date.F9Table of ContentsForeign Currency TranslationThe Company’s financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar (“$”), which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functionalcurrencies are the U.S. Dollar for its U.S. based operations and British Pound (“GBP”) for its United Kingdombased operations and AustralianDollars (“AUD”) for its Australianbased operations. All assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date,stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operations items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate forthe period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income. Gains and losses resulting from thetranslations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).New and Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsIn January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 201602, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 201602”). This standard requires that a lessee recognize theassets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make leasepayments (the lease liability) and a rightofuse asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a termof 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets andlease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presentedusing a modified retrospective approach. ASU 201602 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning afterDecember 15, 2018. The Company evaluated the effects that the adoption of this new standard will have on its financial statements and does notexpect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial statements.In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 201807, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Sharebased Payment Accounting.” ASU 201807 aligns accounting for sharebased payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees underthe existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions. This update supersedes previous guidance for equitybased payments tononemployees under Subtopic 50550, “Equity – Equitybased Payments to Nonemployees.” It is effective for annual reporting periodsbeginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this new standard will have on its financialstatements.Subsequent EventsThe Company has evaluated all transactions through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent disclosure consideration.NOTE 4 – RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITYAccording to UK tax law, the Company is allowed an R&D tax credit that reduces a company’s tax bill in the UK for expenses incurred in R&Dsubject to certain requirements.

MossChief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary(Principal Financial and Accounting Officer)an additional $0.4 million in grants on or prior to the first quarter of 2020, which the Company estimates should meet its planned operatingrequirements into the first quarter of 2020. The Company plans to raise additional capital to meet its future operating requirements until suchtime as the Company develops a recurring source of revenues, which is not expected for several years. The amount and timing of these capitalraises is subject to general market conditions. There are no guarantees that the company will be able to complete these capital raises.NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESUse of EstimatesPreparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requiresmanagement to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual resultsand outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.Cash and Cash EquivalentsFor purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of threemonths or less to be cash equivalents.From time to time, the Company may carry cash balances at financial institutions in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000.ReceivablesReceivables currently consist of an R&D tax credit receivable, valued added tax (“VAT”) receivable, joint development cost receivable and aGoods and Services tax (“GST”) receivable. The R&D tax credit receivable is recorded when R&D is incurred. At that time, the Company recordsa receivable for the amount of the credit it expects to receive based on the expenses incurred. The VAT receivable is recorded when theCompany receives an invoice with VAT related to it. The receivable is recorded for the amount expected to be returned when the VAT tax returnis filed. The joint development cost receivable is recorded when the Company incurs R&D expenses based on the amount it expects to receiveas a reimbursement per the Novamune agreement (see Note 4 for detailed explanation of the agreement). The GST tax receivable is recordedwhen the Company receives an invoice with GST tax related to it. The collectability of these receivables are evaluated periodically based on theactual R&D credit returns submitted, the VAT returns submitted, the GST returns submitted and the amounts received from Novamune. As ofDecember 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no trade receivables.Intangible AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred in connection with inprocess research and development purchased from others if the asset hasalternative uses and such uses are not restricted under applicable license agreements; patent applications (principally legal fees), patentpurchases, and trademarks related to its cell line as intangible assets. Acquired inprocess research and development costs that do not havealternative uses are expensed as incurred. Amortization is initiated for acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets whentheir useful lives have been determined. These acquired inprocess research and development intangible assets are tested at least annually orwhen a triggering event occurs that could indicate a potential impairment. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Companyrecognized impairment related to its intangible assets of $0.F8Table of ContentsBasic and Diluted Loss per ShareBasic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstandingcommon shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is antidilutive. For all periods presented, there is no difference in thenumber of shares used to calculate basic and diluted shares outstanding due to the Company’s net loss position.At December 31, 2018, the Company had 1,632,000 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options and 903,611potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.At December 31, 2017, the Company had 864,668 potentially issuable shares of common stock upon the exercise of warrants.StockBased CompensationThe Company utilizes the BlackScholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock option awards at the date of grant,which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Changes in these inputs andassumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our sharebased compensation. These assumptions are subjective andgenerally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on, ordetermined from, external data and other assumptions may be derived from our historical experience with stockbased payment arrangements.The appropriate weight to place on historical experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees using a fair value approach under ASC Subtopic 50550, EquityBasedPayments to NonEmployees. The Company values equity instruments and stock options granted to nonemployees at fair value using theBlackScholes optionpricing model. The value of nonemployee stockbased compensation is subject to periodic adjustments as the underlyingequity instruments vest and is recognized as an expense over the term of the related financing or the period over which services are received.The Company recognizes compensation expense, on a straightline basis over the requisite service period, which is equal to the applicablevesting period.Research and DevelopmentResearch and development (“R&D”) costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development credits are recorded by the Company as areduction of research and development costs. Major components of research and development costs include cash compensation, stockbasedcompensation, depreciation and amortization expense on research and development property and equipment, costs of preclinical studies,clinical trials and related clinical manufacturing, costs of drug development, costs of materials and supplies, facilities cost, overhead costs,regulatory and compliance costs, and fees paid to consultants and other entities that conduct certain research and development activities onthe Company’s behalf.Income TaxesThe Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities arerecognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respectiveincome tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in incomein the period that includes the enactment date.F9Table of ContentsForeign Currency TranslationThe Company’s financial statements are presented in the U.S. dollar (“$”), which is the Company’s reporting currency, while its functionalcurrencies are the U.S. Dollar for its U.S. based operations and British Pound (“GBP”) for its United Kingdombased operations and AustralianDollars (“AUD”) for its Australianbased operations. All assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date,stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operations items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate forthe period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income. Gains and losses resulting from thetranslations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).New and Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsIn January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 201602, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 201602”). This standard requires that a lessee recognize theassets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make leasepayments (the lease liability) and a rightofuse asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a termof 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets andlease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presentedusing a modified retrospective approach. ASU 201602 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning afterDecember 15, 2018. The Company evaluated the effects that the adoption of this new standard will have on its financial statements and does notexpect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial statements.In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 201807, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Sharebased Payment Accounting.” ASU 201807 aligns accounting for sharebased payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees underthe existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain exceptions.
