Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains certain forward-looking statements that are
subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, the risk that IMUC will
not be able to secure a licensee for development and commercialization
of ICT-107 on favorable terms or at all; the need for substantial
additional capital to fund development of ICT-107 through to
commercialization; the risk that the safety and efficacy results
obtained in the Phase I trial for the dendritic cell-based vaccine will
not be confirmed in subsequent trials; the risk that the correlation
between immunological response and progression-free and overall survival
in the Phase I trial for ICT-107 will not be reflected in statistically
significant larger patient populations; the need to satisfy performance
milestones to maintain the vaccine technology licenses with
Cedars-Sinai; the risks associated with adhering to projected
preclinical or clinical timelines and the uncertainties of outcomes of
development work for product candidates; and the risk of obtaining
patent coverage for the dendritic cell-based vaccine or that any patents
covering this vaccine will provide commercially significant protection
for this product candidate. Additional risks and uncertainties are
described in IMUC's most recently filed SEC documents, such as its most
recent annual report on Form 10-K, all quarterly reports on Form 10-Q
