Processes non-exhaustive list of functions being applied by A.I. Engine Prioritizing T and B Cell Targets Diamond generates a prioritized list of cancer immunological targets for T cells and B cells. Identify Highly Expressed Genes Diamond’s cognitive and deep learning capabilities extract information from our extensive digital library consisting of clinical studies, genomic and proteomic datasets. Perform Meta Analysis Diamond performs meta-analysis and convolution studies while standardizing and normalizing data across multiple and variable experimental platforms, then allows for the visualization of consistent and accurate results in a user-friendly fashion. Predict Isoform Targets Cancer cells will down regulate or shed targets in order to avoid detection and destruction by T cells (the immune system). These targets can be used to create therapies such as antibody therapies, T cell therapies, T cell receptor therapies, CAR T cell therapies and vaccine therapies. These variations are known as isoforms. Diamond harmonizes all the raw data and creates datasets which allows us to screen for cancer targets. CancerSplice also shows a box plot by tissue of expression of the isoform in normal cancer genome atlas tissues and a box plot of the matching isoform in genotype-tissue expression program normal data. Diamond will identify and prioritize lists of genes (biomarkers, wild type, mutant, isoform, neoepitope, etc.) that are highly and specifically expressed in the disease of interest while providing its distribution and methylation status across the entire patient population. The sequence of amino acids that are specific for the selected cancer isoforms are then directly fed to Diamond’s artificial neural capsule network for peptide design and prioritization. It also maps out the exact portion of the gene that will elicit an immune response. 10

CancerSplice TM A key A.I. Engine Target isoforms are protein variants of the same targets that occur during the normal processing of immature gene transcripts to the mature form. Target isoforms include variations in their primary amino acid sequence that can change both the If they are the predominate form on the cell surface, these isoforms can make it impossible for T cells to outright bind the targets on cancer cells. No binding or insufficient binding to the isoform results in no killing of cancer cells. Our CancerSplice accurately predicts the most appropriate isoforms for T cells to bind and destroy cancer cells. final folded form of the target plus be recognized by modified T cells (autologous/allogeneic) and other their ability to cells, such as NK or invariant NKT cells (often used in the allogeneic setting). 15

Our Pipeline PD-1 (Solid Tumors) PD-1 Isoform Mesothelin Check-Point Inhibition This is our lead target candidate which came out of our Artificial Intelligence Prediction Engine. Isoform targets are highly expressed on cancer cells while very lighly expressed on normal (healthy) cells. A protein found on T cells (a type of immune cell) that helps keep the body’s immune responses in check. When PD-1 is bound to another protein called PD-L1 (tumor) , it helps keep T cells from killing other cells, including cancer cells. Some anticancer drugs, called immune checkpoint inhibitors, are used to block PD-1. When this protein is blocked, the “brakes” on the immune system are released and the ability of T cells to kill cancer cells is increased. 18 In vitro validation Pre clinical IND Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase 3 Alexis (γδ-T cells) Allogenic / Iso-Mesothelin EOC (Solid, Ovarian) Alexis (γδ-T cells) Allogenic / Iso-Mesothelin MPM /Pleural mets (Solid, Pleural) Alexis (γδ-T cells) Allogenic / AIDT-1 (Hematologic Indications) check point inhibitor

ABBIE: Non-Viral Genome Editing Mechanism The ABBIE protein accompanies the CAR-containing genome template as it passes through the cell membrane into the nucleus and guides the template-flanking sequences (the “glue”) safely into the target genome. Due to this targeting ability, ABBIE can also be used to remove unwanted, inhibitory genes. CAR expression on the Gamma-Delta T cells allows them to detect and destroy the antigen-expressing targeted cells. The OFF switch permits fast shutdown in the event of an unexpected toxicity. Additional Anti-tumor factors can help neutralize the toxic tumor microenvironment. ABBIE is a novel gene-editing system for inserting therapeutic genes safely into the genome of a host cell. ABBIE technology comprises two main components, (i) a genome template (extracted from the ALEXIS plasmid), containing the therapeutic genes needed to retrain tumor-killing cells, and (ii) the gene-editing machinery required to safely insert this template into the genome the therapeutic cells. of 23

Our ABBIE gene-editing technology begins with the transgene template plasmid. Plasmid DNA is cut with restriction enzyme, ScaI, liberating the transgene template along with the retroviral-derived long-terminal repeats (LTRs), which is Figure 3. The guide RNA (gRNA) tethers ABBIE-bound template to the target site via DCas9, and Integrase helps to attach the exposed 3’OH groups to the target site on both strands without causing a dsDNA break. dCAS9 purified away from the plasmid DNA and ScaI protein.
