Intensity is developing proprietary intratumoral immunotherapy products that both directly kill injected solid tumors and induce immune system recognition of cancer cells throughout the body to address the three challenges of cancer treatment: local, regional, and metastatic disease. Mr. Bender developed the technology and founded the Company in 2012 with the objective of dramatically improving the outcomes for cancer patients. Our novel approach treats both the macro and the micro aspects of cancer. When injected intratumorally (dosed locally), our products have high tumor dispersion and cell penetration properties. These injected products directly kill the tumor cells. This localized cell death results in the creation of antigenic sites that stimulate the adaptive immune system (act globally). The elicited immune response helps to destroy or regress the injected tumor, while also eliminating secondary tumors and micrometastases. The new drug in clinical trials under both a U.S. FDA Investigational New Drug (IND) and a Health Canada-approved clinical trial application (CTA). Since 2017, more than 70 patients have been treated. The US PTO granted the Company patents 9,351,997 in 2016, 9,636,406 in 2017 and 10,. There are over 45 issued patients Mr. Bender successfully completed a series A, B and C financings that raised over $30,000,000. Visit www.intensitytherapeutics.com
