CEL-SCI Provides Update on Partial Clinical Hold on Phase 3 Clinical Trial
CEL-SCI has started working on a response to the FDA and will work diligently with the FDA to seek to have the partial clinical hold lifted.
CEL-SCI Corporation (NYSE MKT:CVM) announced today: following up on our press release issued on September 26, 2016, we have received the Partial Clinical Hold letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(FDA). CEL-SCI has started working on a response to the FDA and will work diligently with the FDA to seek to have the partial clinical hold lifted.
About CEL-SCI Corporation
CEL-SCI’s work is focused on finding the best way to activate the immune
system to fight cancer and infectious diseases. Its lead investigational
immunotherapy, Multikine* (Leukocyte Interleukin, Injection), is
currently being studied in a pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial as a
potential neoadjuvant treatment for patients with squamous cell
carcinoma of the head and neck. Subject to the partial clinical hold,
the study was designed with the objective that, if the study endpoint,
which is an improvement in overall survival of the subjects treated with
the Multikine treatment regimen plus the current standard of care (SOC)
as compared to subjects treated with the current SOC only, is satisfied,
the study results will be used to support applications that the Company
plans to submit to regulatory agencies in order to seek commercial
marketing approvals for Multikine in major markets around the world.
Additional clinical indications for Multikine that are being
investigated include the treatment of cervical dysplasia in HIV/HPV
co-infected women, and the treatment of peri-anal warts in HIV/HPV
co-infected men and women. A Phase 1 trial of the former indication
(treatment of cervical dysplasia in HIV/HPV co-infected women) has been
completed at the University of Maryland. The latter indication
(treatment of peri-anal warts in HIV/HPV co-infected men and women) is
being studied in a Phase 1 trial at UCSF. CEL-SCI has issued patents on
Multikine from the US, Europe, China, and Japan.
CEL-SCI also is developing its pre-clinical L.E.A.P.S. (Ligand Epitope
Antigen Presentation System) technology for the potential treatment of
pandemic influenza in hospitalized patients and as a potential vaccine
for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
The Company has operations in Vienna, Virginia, and in/near Baltimore,
Maryland.

progress and that is currently subject to a clinical hold on enrollment
of additional new patients.
