IMV Inc. (NASDAQ: IMV; TSX: IMV), a clinical-stage company
developing a portfolio of immune-educating therapies, based on its
novel DPX platform, to treat solid and hematologic cancers, today
announced changes to its board of directors as Shermaine Tilley,
Ph.D., MBA has resigned from the Board of Directors ("Board") of
the Company, effective immediately.
Dr. Tilley, Managing Partner at CTI Life Sciences Fund (“CTI
LSF”), was originally appointed to the IMV Board in 2016 as a
representative from CTI LSF following their initial investment in
IMV. Dr. Tilley’s resignation arose due to policy changes
surrounding board positions at CTI LSF and she will remain IMV’s
point of contact at CTI LSF.
“Dr. Tilley has been a valuable member of the board and we have
appreciated her experience in the industry and thoughtful
guidance,” said Michael Bailey, Chairman of the Board. “On behalf
of the Board of Directors, I want to thank Shermaine for her
service and commitment to IMV during the last seven years. We wish
her all the best.”
Following Dr. Tilley’s resignation, the Company has appointed
Brittany Davison, Chief Accounting Officer at IMV to its Board in
an interim capacity while the search for a Canadian replacement is
ongoing.
About IMV
IMV Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company
developing a novel class of cancer vaccines based on DPX®, our
immune-educating technology platform. DPX is designed to inform a
specific, coordinated and persistent anti-tumor immune response,
improving the lives of patients with solid or hematological
cancers. DPX can package a wide range of bioactive molecules in a
single formulation to incite the tumor-killing function of
multiple, distinct immune cell subtypes. IMV’s lead therapeutic
candidate, maveropepimut-S (MVP-S), is a DPX-based cancer vaccine
that delivers antigenic peptides from survivin, a well-recognized
cancer antigen commonly overexpressed in advanced cancers. MVP-S
also delivers an innate immune activator and a universal CD4 T cell
helper peptide. Together, these elements are designed to foster
maturation of antigen presenting cells as well as robust activation
of CD8 T cell effector and memory function that drive a targeted,
sustained immune response. In our clinical trials, MVP-S treatment
has been well tolerated and has demonstrated favorable clinical
outcomes in multiple cancer indications as well as the activation
of a targeted and sustained, survivin-specific anti-tumor immune
response. MVP-S is administered in very low doses approximately
once every two months, which drives a persistent immune attack on
tumor cells. MVP-S is currently being evaluated in Phase 2B
clinical trials for advanced r/r Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma
(DLBCL) and platinum resistant ovarian cancer. IMV is also
developing a dual-targeted cancer vaccine candidate leveraging the
DPX delivery platform, DPX-SurMAGE. This cancer vaccine combines
antigenic peptides for both the survivin and MAGE-A9 cancer
proteins to elicit immune responses to these two distinct cancer
antigens simultaneously. For more information, visit
