Overview

Current report

We are a clinical stage immuno-oncology company developing novel technologies designed to overcome primary and acquired resistance to cancer immunotherapies. Our lead product candidate, IFx2.0, is an innate immune agonist designed to overcome primary resistance to checkpoint inhibitors. We are preparing to initiate a single randomized placebo-controlled Phase 3 registration trial of IFx-2.0 administered as an adjunctive therapy to Keytruda® (pembrolizumab) in first line treatment for patients with advanced or metastatic Merkel Cell Carcinoma who are checkpoint inhibitor naïve, utilizing the FDA’s accelerated approval pathway. In addition to our innate immune agonist candidates, we are leveraging our Delta receptor technology to develop tumor microenvironment modulators in the form of first-in-class bi-specific antibody-peptide conjugates (“APCs”) and antibody-drug conjugates (“ADCs”) targeting Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells (“MDSCs”). Our APCs and ADCs are being developed to inhibit the immune-suppressing effects of MDSCs on the tumor microenvironment to prevent T cell exhaustion and acquired resistance to checkpoint inhibitors and cellular therapies.

Current report

To date, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to organizing and staffing, business planning, raising capital, identifying and developing product candidates, enhancing our intellectual property portfolio, undertaking research, conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, and securing manufacturing for our development programs. We do not have any products approved for sale and have not generated any revenue from product sales. We have funded our operations primarily through the private placement of capital stock and convertible notes.

Current report

We are not profitable and has incurred significant operating losses in each period since its inception, our net losses were $22.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 and $29.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 (which includes the expensing of the entire $16.2 million purchase price for the assets of TuHURA Biopharma, Inc. (“TuHURA Biopharma”), of which $15.0 million was paid in the form of Legacy TuHURA common stock), and $6.7 million and $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of March 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $117.8 million. Our operating losses may fluctuate significantly from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year as a result of several factors, including the timing of our preclinical studies and clinical trials and the expenditures related to other research and development activities. We expect to continue to incur operating losses. We anticipate these losses will increase substantially as it advances our product candidates through preclinical and clinical development, develops additional product candidates and seeks regulatory approvals for our product candidates. We do not expect to generate any revenues from product sales unless and until we successfully complete development and obtains regulatory approval for one or more product candidates. In addition, if we obtain marketing approval for any product candidate, we expect to incur pre-commercialization expenses and significant commercialization expenses related to marketing, sales, manufacturing and distribution. We may also incur expenses in connection with the in-licensing of additional product candidates. Furthermore, we expect to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company, including significant legal, accounting, investor relations, compliance and other expenses that we did not previously incur as a private company.

Current report

As a result, we will need substantial additional funding to support our continuing operations and pursue our growth strategy. Until such time as we can generate significant revenue from sales of our product candidates, if ever, we expect to finance our cash needs through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations and licensing arrangements or other capital sources. However, we may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such other arrangements when needed on favorable terms or at all. Our failure to raise capital or enter into such other arrangements as and when needed would have a negative impact on our financial condition and could force it to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development or future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market our product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market itself.

Current report

Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with pharmaceutical product development, we are unable to accurately predict the timing or amount of increased expenses or when or if we will be able to achieve or maintain profitability. Even if we are able to generate product sales, we may not become profitable. If we fail to become profitable or are unable to sustain profitability on a continuing basis, we may be unable to continue our operations at planned levels and be forced to reduce or terminate our operations.

Current report

As of March 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $6.2 million. See “— Liquidity and Capital Resources” below.

Merger with Kintara Therapeutics

Current report

On October 18, 2024, we completed the transactions contemplated by the Kintara Merger Agreement. Pursuant to the Kintara Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into Legacy TuHURA with Legacy TuHURA surviving the merger and becoming Kintara’s direct, wholly-owned subsidiary. In connection with the completion of the Kintara Merger, effective at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on October 18, 2024, Kintara effected a 1-for-35 reverse stock split of its common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). Effective at 12:03 a.m. Eastern Time on October 18, 2024, the Kintara Merger was completed, and effective at 12:04 a.m. Eastern Time on October 18, 2024, Kintara changed its name to “TuHURA Biosciences, Inc.”

Current report

The Kintara Merger is being accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP, with Kintara treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes and TuHURA treated as the accounting acquirer. The Kintara Merger is intended to qualify for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a tax-free reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a) of the Code.

Current report

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Kintara Merger Agreement, at the closing of the Kintara Merger, (a) each then-outstanding share of Legacy TuHURA common stock (other than shares held in treasury and excluding dissenting shares), including shares of Legacy TuHURA common stock issued upon conversion of Legacy TuHURA preferred stock and conversion of all of Legacy TuHURA's convertible promissory notes issued in Legacy TuHURA’s note financing, were converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Kintara common stock (after giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split) based on an exchange ratio of 0.1789 shares of Kintara common stock for each outstanding share of Legacy TuHURA common stock per the Kintara Merger Agreement (the “Exchange Ratio”), and (b) each then-outstanding Legacy TuHURA stock option and warrant that was not exercised immediately prior to the effective time of the Kintara Merger was assumed by Kintara with the number of underlying shares and exercise price being adjusted in accordance with the Exchange Ratio.

Current report

Also at the closing of the Kintara Merger, Kintara entered into a Contingent Value Rights Agreement with the Rights Agent (as defined in the Kintara Merger Agreement), pursuant to which holders of Kintara common stock and Kintara common stock warrants, in each case, as of the close of business on the business day immediately prior to the effective time of the Kintara Merger, received one contingent value right (a “CVR”) for each outstanding share of Kintara held by such stockholder (or, in the case of the warrants, each share of Kintara common stock for which such warrant is exercisable). Each CVR shall entitle the holder thereof to receive its portion of 1,539,918 shares of TuHURA common stock if TuHURA achieves the following milestones: (i) TuHURA enrolls a minimum of ten cutaneous metastatic breast cancer patients in a study to determine whether a dose of TuHURA’s REM-001 lower than 1.2 mg/kg elicits a treatment effect similar to that seen in prior studies of REM-001 at the 1.2 mg/kg dose and (ii) such patients enrolled in the study complete eight weeks of follow-up, in each case, on or before December 31, 2025.

Kineta Exclusivity Agreement, July 2024 Private Placement and Kineta Merger Agreement

Current report

On July 8, 2024, we issued a press release announcing that we had entered into the Exclusivity Agreement with Kineta for the potential acquisition of Kineta’s KVA12123 anti-VISTA antibody and related rights and assets associated with and derived from the asset.

Current report

KVA12123 is a rationally targeted, anti-VISTA antibody checkpoint inhibitor designed to reverse VISTA immune suppression and remodel the tumor microenvironment (TME) to overcome acquired resistance to immunotherapies.

Current report

Pursuant to the Exclusivity Agreement, among other things, Kineta granted us an exclusive right to acquire Kineta’s worldwide patents, patent rights, patent applications, product and development program assets, technical and business information, and other rights and assets associated with and derived from its development program related to KVA12123 during a specified period commencing on July 3, 2024. Under the terms of the Exclusivity Agreement, we paid Kineta a fee in the amount of $5,000,000, with $2,500,000 paid at signing and an additional $2,500,000 paid on July 15, 2024, and we thereafter paid $300,000 in extension payments under the Exclusivity Agreement (collectively, the “Exclusivity Payments”). The Exclusivity Payments will be credited against the initial cash consideration payable to Kineta stockholders under the Kineta Merger Agreement.

Current report

In conjunction with the Exclusivity Agreement, we sold 717,321 shares of our common stock in a private offering with a purchase price of $5,000,000 (the “July Private Placement”) to an existing (the “Investor”). In connection with the July Private Placement, the Investor is entitled to a 1.5% royalty on certain sales by us of products based on KVA12123 as set forth in the Investor’s subscription agreement. Due to the inherent uncertainties surrounding the regulatory approval of KVA12123 and future monetization, we have not allocated any of the $5,000,000 purchase price consideration to the royalty agreement.

Current report

On May 5, 2025, we announced that we had entered into the Amendment. The Kineta Merger Agreement contemplates that, at the closing of the merger transaction, Hura Merger Sub I will (a) merge with and into Kineta, with Kineta being the surviving corporation of the First Merger, and (b) immediately following the First Merger and as part of the same overall transaction as the First Merger, the Surviving Entity will merge with and into Hura Merger Sub II, with Hura Merger Sub II being the surviving company of the Second Merger.

Current report

Clinical Trial Funding Agreement

Current report

In connection with the Kineta Merger Agreement, we entered into a Clinical Trial Funding Agreement (the “CTF Agreement”) with Kineta under which we agreed to continue to fund clinical trial expenses for KVA12123 in an amount of up to $900,000, which may be increased upon mutual agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the CTF Agreement, Kineta granted a security interest to us in the assets, rights, including patents, patent rights, patent application, product and development program assets, and other rights and assets, associated with, derived from, relating to, or used in connection with KVA12123 and the KVA12123 development program and clinical trial. Any amounts loaned to Kineta under the CTF Agreement will be evidenced by a secured promissory note, bearing interest at 5% simple interest per annum, payable on the earlier of (a) following the closing of the Kineta Merger, any date on which we demand payment by written notice to Kineta or (b) if the Kineta Merger Agreement is terminated, within ten days following the date of such termination. To date, we have paid approximately $852,000 in clinical trial expenses pursuant to the CTF Agreement and $250,000 in working capital loans.

Current report

Special Protocol Assessment Agreement

Current report

On January 25, 2024, we entered into a Special Protocol Assessment Agreement for a single registration directed, randomized, placebo controlled Phase 3 trial for IFx-Hu2.0 as adjunctive therapy to pembrolizumab (Keytruda®) in first line treatment for patients with advanced or metastatic Merkel cell carcinoma who are checkpoint inhibitor naive. The trial utilizes a novel design recommended by the FDA which incorporates Objective Response Rate (ORR) as the primary endpoint for accelerated approval. The trial also includes Progression Free Survival (PFS) as a key secondary endpoint which, if achieved, without demonstrating a detriment to Overall Survival, could allow conversion from accelerated approval to full approval satisfying the requirement for a post marketing trial. Before initiating this Phase 3 trial we are required to complete certain manufacturing activities as noted in a partial clinical hold correspondence from FDA. Based on correspondence following a type C meeting with the FDA, we have ongoing development and validation of several testing and mixing studies which we believe will be adequate to address the CMC requirements to initiate the Phase 3 clinical trial. We believe we will be in position to initiate the Phase 3 study in the second quarter of 2025 and anticipate enrollment to take approximately 12 months with topline data six to seven months following the last patient enrolled.

Current report

Phase 1b/2a Study of IFx-Hu2.0

Current report

On May 5, 2025, we initiated a Phase 1b/2a Study of IFx-Hu2.0 as an Adjunctive Therapy to Keytruda® (pembrolizumab) in First Line Treatment for Metastatic Merkel cell carcinoma of Unknown Primary Origin (MCCUP). The Phase 1b/2a trial is designed to evaluate the safety and feasibility of IFx-Hu2.0 in combination with Keytruda® when administered via Interventional Radiology (IR) in patients with deep-seated tumors without associated cutaneous tumors.

Recent Events

Previous report

On October 4, 2024, the Company and Robert E. Hoffman, then-Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer of the Company, entered into an amendment (the “Hoffman Amendment”) to that certain Executive Employment Agreement dated November 8, 2021 (the “Hoffman Employment Agreement”), pursuant to which all outstanding stock options previously granted to Mr. Hoffman by the Company vested in full on October 4, 2024 in exchange for Mr. Hoffman agreeing to extend the non-competition restrictions of the Hoffman Employment Agreement for a period of twelve months following the date that his employment terminates with the Company.

Previous report

On October 18, 2024, we completed a previously-announced definitive merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) with Kayak Mergeco, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), and TuHURA Biosciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“TuHURA”), pursuant to which Merger Sub merged with and into TuHURA, with TuHURA surviving the merger and becoming our direct, wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Merger”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger, shareholders of TuHURA received shares of our common stock. Under the terms of the Merger, at the effective time of the Merger, (i) Kintara issued an aggregate of approximately 40,441,605 shares of common stock to TuHURA stockholders, based on an exchange ratio of 0.1789 (after giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split) shares of Kintara’s common stock for each share of TuHURA common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Merger, (ii) each then-outstanding TuHURA stock option was assumed and converted into an option to purchase shares of Kintara common stock subject to certain adjustments based on the exchange ratio as set forth in the Merger Agreement, and (iii) each then-outstanding warrant to purchase shares of TuHURA common stock was assumed and converted into and exchangeable based on the exchange ratio for a warrant of like tenor entitling the holder to purchase shares of Kintara common stock.

Previous report

Our stockholders existing as of the close of business on the business day immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger received one contingent value right(a “CVR”), for each outstanding share Company common stock held by such stockholder (or, in the case of warrants to purchase Company common stock, each share of common stock for which such warrant is exercisable) entitling them to receive, in the aggregate, approximately 1,539,918 shares of our common stock upon achievement of enrollment of a minimum of 10 patients in the REM-001 Study, with such patients each completing eight weeks of follow-up on or before December 31, 2025 (the “Milestone”). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, TuHURA stockholders as of immediately prior to the Merger owned, in aggregate and on a fully-diluted basis, approximately 97.15% of the Company (or 94.55% of the Company after giving effect to the issuance of the CVR Shares assuming the Milestone has been achieved) and Company securityholders as of immediately prior to the Merger owned, in aggregate and on a fully-diluted basis, approximately 2.85% of the Company (or 5.45% of the Company after giving effect to the issuance of the CVR Shares assuming the Milestone has been achieved).

Upcoming Clinical Milestones

Previous report

Effective July 1, 2023, we were awarded a $2,000 grant from the National Institutes of Health (“NIH”) to be received over a two-year period as expenses are incurred. The grant from the NIH will fund the majority of expenses related to the REM-001 CMBC 15-patient clinical study (the “REM-001 Study”). As a result of receiving the NIH grant, we re-initiated our REM-001 program and have opened enrollment at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, where we have initiated treatment in a total of four patients as of November 14, 2024. We expect to complete enrollment of patients in the REM-001 Study in the fourth calendar quarter of 2024.

Previous report

REM-001

Previous report

Background

Previous report

Through REM-001, we are developing our photodynamic therapy (“PDT”) for the treatment of rare, unmet medical needs. PDT is a treatment that uses light sensitive compounds, or photosensitizers, that, when exposed to specific wavelengths of light, act as catalysts to produce a form of oxygen that induces local tumor cell death. REM-001 consists of three parts: the laser light source, the light delivery device, and the REM-001 drug product (collectively, the “REM-001 Therapy”). REM-001 consists of an active pharmaceutical ingredient (“API”) in a lipid formulation. The REM-001 API is SnET2 (“tin ethyl etiopurpurin”) which is a second-generation PDT photosensitizer agent. We believe REM-001 possesses multiple advantages over earlier generation PDT compounds.

Previous report

Our lead indication for REM-001 is CMBC which is a disease that may strike individuals with advanced breast cancer and for which effective treatment options are limited. In four Phase 2 and/or Phase 3 clinical studies in CMBC patients, primarily targeting patients who had previously received chemotherapy and failed radiation therapy, REM-001 Therapy was able to reduce, or eliminate, a substantial number of the treated CMBC tumors. Specifically, our analysis of the data collected from these studies indicates that in approximately 80% of evaluable tumor sites treated with REM-001 Therapy, there was a complete response; meaning that follow-up clinical assessments indicated no visible evidence of the tumor remaining. We believe clinical data indicates that REM-001 Therapy holds promise as a treatment to locally eliminate, or slow the growth of, treated cutaneous cancerous tumors in this difficult-to-treat patient population.

Previous report

Numerous approaches have been utilized to treat CMBC patients, including various forms of chemotherapy, radiation therapy, surgical excision, hyperthermia, cryotherapy, electro-chemotherapy, topical drugs, and intra-lesional chemotherapy injections. However, for the most part, we believe that these therapies are often inadequate given the limited efficacy, toxicities and/or side effects of each. We believe our REM-001 Therapy has several advantages for this indication: it can be highly directed to the tumor site, has minimal systemic effects or normal tissue toxicities, can be used in conjunction with other therapies, and can be periodically repeated.

Previous report

Our REM-001 Therapy product consists of three parts: the DD series laser light source (or equivalent), the ML2-0400 light delivery device (or equivalent) and the drug REM-001. In use, REM-001 is first administered by intravenous infusion and allowed to distribute within the body and be taken up by the tumors. Tumors are then illuminated with light using the light delivery device, which is attached to the laser light source, so that the accumulated REM-001 can be activated for the desired clinical effect.

Previous report

As a result of our review of the historical data, we submitted questions to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) under a Type C format to review the technology and results and determine the anticipated requirements for regulatory approval. On March 3, 2017, we received the FDA’s written response to these questions. Based on that response, we have successfully manufactured REM-001 and developed light delivery devices for our planned 15-patient Phase 2 study. We received a Study May Proceed letter from the FDA for our 15-patient study on August 9, 2022.

Previous report

On October 19, 2022, we announced that the REM-001 program in CMBC was paused to conserve cash which will be used to support the funding of the GBM AGILE Study. Effective July 1, 2023, we were awarded a two-year $2,000 Small Business Innovation Research grant from the National Institutes of Health to support the clinical development of REM-001 for the treatment of CMBC. The grant will be received in tranches of approximately $1,250 for the period July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2024, and approximately $750 for the period July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025. As a result of receiving the grant, we re-initiated our REM-001 program and have opened enrollment at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, where we have initiated treatment in a total of 4 patients as of November 14, 2024. We expect to complete enrollment of patients in the REM-001 Study in the fourth calendar quarter of 2024.

VAL-083

Previous report

On October 31, 2023, we announced preliminary topline results for VAL-083 from the GBM AGILE study. VAL-083 did not perform better than the current standards of care in glioblastoma and the preliminary safety data was similar to that of the current standards of care used to treat glioblastoma. As a result, we terminated the development of VAL-083. On February 13, 2024, we sent an Opt-Out Notice to Valent under the Valent Assignment Agreement whereby we assigned all rights, title, and interest in and to the patents for VAL-083 to Valent. As a result, we granted Valent a non-exclusive, fully-paid, royalty-free, perpetual, worldwide and non-transferable license, subject to limited exceptions. We are entitled to receive royalties from Valent’s subsequent commercialization of VAL-083 equal to 5% of Valent Net Sales (as defined in the Valent Assignment Agreement).
