SUMMARY OF FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR PERIODS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2018

At December 31, 2018, the Company had cash and cash equivalents on hand of approximately $3.7 million.

For the three months ended December 31, 2018, the Company reported a net loss of $1,809,697, or $0.08 per share, compared to a net loss of $3,161,598, or $0.14 per share, for the three months ended December 31, 2017.

For the six months ended December 31, 2018, the Company reported a net loss of $3,801,501, or $0.16 per share, compared to a net loss of $5,828,004, or $0.31 per share, for the six months ended December 31, 2017.

The following represents selected financial information as of December 31, 2018. The Company’s financial information has been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and this selected information should be read in conjunction with DelMar’s consolidated financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis, as filed.

DelMar’s financial statements as filed with the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission can be viewed on the company’s website at: View Source

Research and development expenses decreased to $947,249 during the three months ended December 31, 2018 from $2,141,945 for the three months ended December 31, 2017. The decrease was largely attributable to a decrease in clinical development costs, personnel, preclinical research, and non-cash, share-based compensation expense during the three months ended December 31, 2018 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2017.

General and administrative expenses decreased during the three months ended December 31, 2018 to $874,884 from $1,011,879 for the three months ended December 31, 2017, largely due to a decrease in professional fees and personnel, partially offset by higher non-cash, share-based compensation expense in the current quarter compared to the prior quarter.

Research and development expenses decreased to $1,966,369 during the six months ended December 31, 2018 from $4,076,588 for the six months ended December 31, 2017. The decrease was largely attributable to a decrease in clinical development costs, personnel, preclinical research, intellectual property and travel costs during the current period compared to the prior period.

General and administrative expenses were $1,861,354 for the six months ended December 31, 2018 compared to $1,756,500 for the six months ended December 31, 2017. A significant portion of the increase was due to an increase in non-cash, share-based compensation expense and personnel costs in the current period compared to the prior period. Partially offsetting the impact of these two items were lower professional fees and travel costs during the six months ended December 31, 2018 compared to the six months ended December 31, 2017.

Genmab Announces U.S. FDA Approval of DARZALEX® (daratumumab) Split Dosing Regimen

On February 12, 2019 Genmab A/S (Nasdaq Copenhagen: GEN) reported that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (U.S. FDA) has approved a split dosing regimen for DARZALEX (daratumumab) (Press release, Genmab, FEB 12, 2019, View Source [SID1234533251]). The approval will be included in an update to the Prescribing Information in order to provide healthcare professionals the option to split the first infusion of DARZALEX over two consecutive days. The supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) was submitted by Genmab’s licensing partner, Janssen Biotech, Inc., in July, 2018. The split dosing option was previously approved in Europe by the European Commission in December 2018. In August 2012, Genmab granted Janssen an exclusive worldwide license to develop, manufacture and commercialize daratumumab.

"We are pleased that, with this change, patients in the U.S. receiving their first infusion of DARZALEX may now have this more flexible dosing option," said Jan van de Winkel, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Genmab

This approval was supported by data from the Phase Ib EQUULEUS (MMY1001) clinical trial, which demonstrated DARZALEX pharmacokinetics (PK) concentrations were comparable regardless of whether the first dose was administered as a split infusion or as a single first infusion in patients with multiple myeloma. The safety profile of DARZALEX was comparable when administered initially as either a split or a single dose.

About the EQUULEUS (MMY1001) Study
The Phase Ib EQUULEUS open-label study includes up to 240 patients with the goal of evaluating the safety, tolerability and dose of daratumumab when administered in combination with various backbone treatment regimens for different settings of multiple myeloma.

About DARZALEX(daratumumab)
DARZALEX (daratumumab) injection for intravenous infusion is indicated in the United States in combination with bortezomib, melphalan and prednisone for the treatment of patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who are ineligible for autologous stem cell transplant; in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone, or bortezomib and dexamethasone, for the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma who have received at least one prior therapy; in combination with pomalidomide and dexamethasone for the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma who have received at least two prior therapies, including lenalidomide and a proteasome inhibitor (PI); and as a monotherapy for the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma who have received at least three prior lines of therapy, including a PI and an immunomodulatory agent, or who are double-refractory to a PI and an immunomodulatory agent.1 DARZALEX is the first monoclonal antibody (mAb) to receive U.S. Food and Drug Administration (U.S. FDA) approval to treat multiple myeloma. DARZALEX is indicated in Europe in combination with bortezomib, melphalan and prednisone for the treatment of adult patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who are ineligible for autologous stem cell transplant; for use in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone, or bortezomib and dexamethasone, for the treatment of adult patients with multiple myeloma who have received at least one prior therapy; and as monotherapy for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma, whose prior therapy included a PI and an immunomodulatory agent and who have demonstrated disease progression on the last therapy. The option to split the first infusion of DARZALEX over two consecutive days has been approved in both Europe and the U.S. In Japan, DARZALEX is approved in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone, or bortezomib and dexamethasone, for the treatment of adults with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. DARZALEX is the first human CD38 monoclonal antibody to reach the market in the United Stated, Europe and Japan. For more information, visit www.DARZALEX.com.

Daratumumab is a human IgG1k monoclonal antibody (mAb) that binds with high affinity to the CD38 molecule, which is highly expressed on the surface of multiple myeloma cells. Daratumumab triggers a person’s own immune system to attack the cancer cells, resulting in rapid tumor cell death through multiple immune-mediated mechanisms of action and through immunomodulatory effects, in addition to direct tumor cell death, via apoptosis (programmed cell death).1,2,3,4,5

Daratumumab is being developed by Janssen Biotech, Inc. under an exclusive worldwide license to develop, manufacture and commercialize daratumumab from Genmab. A comprehensive clinical development program for daratumumab is ongoing, including multiple Phase III studies in smoldering, relapsed and frontline multiple myeloma settings and in amyloidosis. Additional studies are ongoing or planned to assess the potential of daratumumab in other malignant and pre-malignant diseases, such as NKT-cell lymphoma, B and T-ALL. Daratumumab has received two Breakthrough Therapy Designations from the U.S. FDA, for multiple myeloma, as both a monotherapy and in combination with other therapies.
