About OncoSec Medical Inc.
OncoSec Medical Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company developing its
advanced-stage ImmunoPulse DNA-based immunotherapy and NeoPulse therapy
to treat solid tumor cancers. ImmunoPulse and NeoPulse therapies address
an unmet medical need and represent a potential solution, for less
invasive and less expensive therapies that are able to minimize
detrimental effects resulting from currently available cancer treatments
such as surgery, systemic chemotherapy or immunotherapy and other
treatment alternatives. OncoSec Medical's core technology is based upon
its proprietary use of an electroporation platform to dramatically
enhance the delivery and uptake of a locally delivered DNA-based
immunocytokine (ImmunoPulse) or chemotherapeutic agent (NeoPulse).
Treatment of various solid cancers using these powerful and
targeted anti-cancer agents has demonstrated selective destruction of
cancerous cells while sparing healthy normal tissues during early and
late stage clinical trials. OncoSec's clinical programs include three
Phase II clinical trials for ImmunoPulse targeting lethal skin cancers.
