Nature of Business

 

GeoVax Labs, Inc. (“GeoVax”, “us”, “we” or the “Company”) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing human vaccines and immunotherapies against infectious diseases and solid tumor cancers using novel proprietary platforms.

 

The Company’s primary development priority is the advancement of GEO-MVA, a Modified Vaccinia Ankara (MVA) vaccine candidate for mpox, smallpox, and other poxviruses. The program is advancing under an expedited regulatory pathway in Europe, with plans to initiate a pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial in the second half of 2026. The Company’s lead clinical program in oncology is Gedeptin®, a novel oncolytic solid tumor gene-directed therapy, which recently completed a multicenter Phase 1/2 clinical trial for advanced head and neck cancers. A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Gedeptin in combination with an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) as first-line treatment of patients with squamous cell head and neck cancer is planned to initiate during the second half of 2027.
