Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, which are subject to the “safe harbor” created by those sections. These forward-looking statements consist of statements regarding: (i) the Company’s estimation of the annual market opportunity for Olvi-Vec in the United States and (ii) the Company’s expectations regarding the timing of one or more systemic administration trials of Olvi-Vec in recurrent non-small-cell lung cancer in the United States. Actual future results may differ materially from those projected as a result of certain risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties include, without limitation: the accuracy of the Company’s assumptions and expectations underlying its estimated annual market opportunity for Olvi-Vec in the United States; uncertainty regarding geopolitical and macroeconomic events and any resulting delays in clinical trials; risks associated with the discovery, development and regulation of Olvi-Vec; the risk that the Company or its partners may cease or delay preclinical or clinical development activities for any existing or future product candidates for a variety of reasons (including difficulties or delays in patient enrollment in planned clinical trials); the possibility that existing collaborations could be terminated early; subsequent study or trial results and findings may contradict earlier study or trial results and findings; and the risks set forth under “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 and in the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The forward-looking statements are applicable only as of the date on which they are made, and the Company does not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, except as may be required by law.
