Overview We are a biotechnology company focused on commercializing our proprietary platform technologies, iBioLaunch™ and iBioModulator™, and developing select product candidates derived from these platforms. iBioLaunch is a proprietary, transformative platform technology for development and production of biologics using transient gene expression in hydroponically grown, unmodified green plants. iBioModulator is a proprietary technology platform that is designed to improve the potency and duration of effect of both prophylactic and therapeutic vaccines produced with any recombinant expression technology including iBioLaunch. Stated simply, iBioLaunch harnesses the natural protein production capability that plants use to sustain their own growth, and directs it instead to produce proteins that comprise the active pharmaceutical ingredients in vaccines and biopharmaceuticals. The platform’s ability to produce a wide array of biologics is evidenced by, among other things, our validated pipeline of iBioLaunch-produced product candidates. The iBio pipeline includes vaccines, enzyme replacements, monoclonal antibodies, and recombinant versions of marketed products that are currently derived from human blood plasma. In addition to the broad array of biological products that can be produced with iBioLaunch, we believe this technology offers other advantages that are not available with conventional manufacturing systems. These anticipated advantages may include reduced production time and lower capital and operating costs. In May 2013, the speed of iBioLaunch production was demonstrated when a third party laboratory using the iBioLaunch platform was able, in a 21 day period from receipt of antigen sequence information to purification of recombinant protein, to successfully produce a vaccine candidate for the newly emerged H7N9 influenza virus. We believe the successful production of this vaccine candidate demonstrates, among other things, that it is possible to utilize the iBioLaunch platform to produce vaccine doses for emergency use against pandemic and bioterrorism threats in weeks rather than the months necessary with the use of engineered or attenuated virus strains.
