CEL-SCI Corporation (NYSE American: CVM) today reported it has received a decision letter from the United Kingdom’s Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) granting Multikine (Leukocyte Interleukin, Injection)* a product specific waiver for the treatment of head and neck cancer in a pediatric population of people up to 18 years of age. As a result, CEL-SCI will not be required to evaluate Multikine in a pediatric population as part of license and marketing clearance review in the UK.

“While we prepare to commence our confirmatory FDA Registration Study of Multikine here in the U.S., and elsewhere, we are very pleased to receive continued positive responses from the UK’s healthcare regulatory agency. This pediatric waiver accelerates our path to marketing approval in the UK,” stated CEL-SCI CEO Geert Kersten.

About CEL-SCI Corporation

CEL-SCI believes that boosting a patient’s immune system while it is still intact should provide the greatest possible impact on survival. Multikine is designed to help the immune system "target" the tumor at a time when the immune system is still relatively intact and thereby thought to be better able to mount an attack on the tumor.

Multikine (Leukocyte Interleukin, Injection), a true first-line cancer therapy, has been dosed in over 740 patients and received Orphan Drug designation from the FDA for neoadjuvant therapy in patients with squamous cell carcinoma (cancer) of the head and neck. Multikine significantly extended life in its target patient population demonstrating a 73% survival rate with Multikine vs. only 45% without Multikine at 5 years after treatment. Based on this very strong data, the FDA agreed to CEL-SCI’s target patient selection criteria and gave the go-ahead to conduct a small, focused, confirmatory Registration Study which will enroll 212 patients. CEL-SCI will enroll newly diagnosed locally advanced primary head and neck cancer patients who present with no lymph node involvement (determined via PET scan) and with low PD-L1 tumor expression (determined via biopsy), representing over 100,000 patients (globally) annually.

The Company has operations in Vienna, Virginia, and near/in Baltimore, Maryland.
