based on the schedule of current operational activities. However, there are no assurances that this timetable will be met in the

technology utilizes a unique combination of conserved and common influenza virus peptides intended to stimulate both arms of the
immune system for a cross-protecting and long-lasting effect. In a total of seven completed Phase 1/2 and Phase 2 clinical trials
enrolling 818 participants, the vaccine has been shown to be safe, well-tolerated, and immunogenic. The ongoing pivotal Phase 3
clinical trial aims to assess safety and effectiveness of M-001 in reducing flu illness and severity. For more information, please
