Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: INO) is a pioneering United States-based biotechnology company dedicated to combating cancers and infectious diseases through DNA medicines. The company's innovative approach harnesses active DNA-based immunotherapies and vaccines to both treat and prevent these conditions.
Inovio's core technology revolves around its DNA plasmids, which are small circular DNA molecules crafted to produce specific proteins to target and fight diseases, delivered via their proprietary CELLECTRA® electroporation devices. This technology enables the body to produce its own disease-fighting proteins and immune responses, without the need for traditional adjuvants or nanoparticles.
The company's flagship candidate, INO-3107, targets Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis (RRP), a chronic and rare disease caused by HPV-6 and HPV-11. Inovio has shown significant clinical progress with INO-3107, and after receiving Breakthrough Therapy designation and Orphan Drug designation from both the FDA and the European Commission, it is on track to submit a Biologics License Application (BLA) under the FDA's accelerated approval program. With successful clinical trials demonstrating a robust immune response and a reduction in the need for surgical interventions, INO-3107 stands as a potential game-changer for RRP patients.
In addition to INO-3107, Inovio's expansive product pipeline includes several other promising candidates in various stages of development. These include INO-3112 for HPV-16/18 positive head and neck cancer, INO-4201 as an Ebola vaccine booster, and INO-5401 for glioblastoma, showcasing the versatility and broad applicability of the company's DNA medicine platform.
Inovio has established numerous strategic partnerships and collaborations to enhance its research and development efforts. Key partners include Roche, MedImmune, the University of Pennsylvania, DARPA, Drexel University, NIH, and the U.S. Military HIV Research Program. These collaborations not only bolster Inovio's scientific capabilities but also facilitate the swift advancement of its clinical programs.
Financially, Inovio has maintained a disciplined approach to managing its resources. The company recently projected its cash runway to extend into the second quarter of 2025, following positive feedback from the FDA on the accelerated approval pathway for INO-3107. This financial stability is crucial as Inovio prepares for potential commercialization of its lead candidates.
Inovio's commitment to innovation and its effective strategic execution position it as a formidable player in the biopharmaceutical industry, dedicated to bringing groundbreaking DNA medicine solutions to market. For more information, visit www.inovio.com.

The data shows INO-3107 induced expansion of new clonal T cells in blood that weren't detectable before treatment. These cells traveled to papilloma and airway tissues, generating an inflammatory and anti-viral response consistent with reduced surgery needs for RRP patients with HPV-6 and HPV-11. The Phase 1/2 trial's immunological testing demonstrated the drug's ability to induce T cell responses specific to HPV-6 and HPV-11, including cytotoxic CD8+ T cells present at week 52, indicating memory response establishment.
