During the period, the Company has also been developing iSCIB1+, an AvidiMab™ modified version of SCIB1, which is expected to increase both the potency of SCIB1 and extend patent life. The modification also includes multiple epitopes so it can be used to treat all patients rather than be limited to the 40% of patients who have the appropriate HLA type for treatment with SCIB1. Given the significant improvements in potency, utility and patent life with iSCIB1+, the Company is currently evaluating its strategic options for the current SCIB1 programme which could include changes to the product, protocol and delivery system and will update the market in H1 2022 with regards to its strategy.
