## Cross-quarter narrative

Across the two calls the company’s focus shifted from early‑stage financing and Phase‑2 trial set‑up (Q1) toward execution of a new CANVAS trial and related operational matters (Q4). In Q1 management highlighted cash‑runway concerns, a Share Purchase Plan, a Saxony grant and manufacturing scale‑up, while noting on‑track Phase‑2 milestones and a range of financing and clinical development fears. By Q4 those financing themes receded, replaced by recruitment‑related risks for the CANVAS trial, immune‑monitoring data releases, foreign‑exchange hedging and a push toward US investor outreach. Manufacturing and competitive risks were no longer emphasized, suggesting reduced immediate concern. New risks emerged around patient enrollment variability, currency exposure and media strategy, while earlier fears about cash balance and grant‑funded Phase‑2 work persisted implicitly as still‑open milestones. Overall the narrative reflects a transition from capital‑raising and set‑up activities to trial execution and market‑facing initiatives, with a mixed pattern of risk evolution: some earlier fears fade, while new operational and market‑related uncertainties arise.

### Demand visibility

Clinical trial patient recruitment visibility discussed; investor interest noted.

Management describes CANVAS trial targeting up to 80 clinical centers, with recruitment rates varying from 0.5 to 1 patient per center per month depending on referral base. Increased US trading volume attributed to investor outreach and biotech sector interest.

### Milestones

- **CANVAS trial** [on_track]: Targeting up to 80 clinical centers, up to 50 manufacturing centers; recruitment rates 0.5-1 patient per center per month.
- **ICS immune monitoring data release** [on_track]: Analyzing longitudinal immune profiles across all 63 patients from baseline through dosing.
- **US investor outreach** [delivered]: Increased US trading volume attributed to investor meetings and ASCO conference exposure.
- **Foreign exchange hedging** [on_track]: Holding significant EUR and USD positions; hedging contracts based on projected operations.
- **Australian media presence** [at_risk]: Focus shifted to US; cautious about over-communication; considering high-profile ovarian cancer advocacy but conservative approach.

### Fears / risks

- **Clinical trial recruitment**: Recruitment rates vary significantly by center; patient enrollment challenging post-diagnosis.
- **Foreign exchange**: Exposure to AUD weakening; hedging based on projected operations but significant EUR/USD holdings provide buffer.
- **Media and communication**: Balancing US vs Australian media presence; risk of over-communication; cautious about high-profile advocacy before data.
- **Clinical data uncertainty**: ICS longitudinal data still being analyzed; primary focus on peak immune response during dosing.
