An estimated 20 million people are diagnosed annually with cancer, while cancer kills almost 10 million people a year worldwide with these numbers expected to grow. The American Cancer Society projects that by 2050, 35 million people will be diagnosed with cancer every year. Despite significant progress made in treating the disease, there is still a desperate need — and an enormous market potential — for new and more effective cancer drugs. Calidi Biotherapeutics Inc. (NYSE American: CLDI) (Profile) is committed to developing a novel approach to treating cancer through the precise delivery of genetic medicines to both primary tumors and metastatic sites of disease. This cutting-edge platform, which harnesses engineered viruses that can target sites of cancer in the body and deliver potent genetic medicines to attack tumors, has the potential to revolutionize the way cancer is treated. And while cancer is the initial focus for Calidi, the company has also begun to assess the potential of this technology in other areas of large unmet need such as autoimmune disease. Calidi is joining an elite group of high-quality companies focused on making a difference in the world of cancer and genetic medicines, including Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: REGN), CG Oncology Inc. (NASDAQ: CGON), Roche (OTCQX: RHHBY) and Merck & Co. Inc. (NYSE: MRK).

About Calidi Biotherapeutics
Calidi Biotherapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company pioneering the development of targeted therapies that can deliver genetic medicines to sites of disease. The company’s proprietary Redtail platform represents a decade of development and expertise in designing viral vectors that can evade immune detection allowing for systemic delivery and distal sites of disease in oncology and, potentially, other indications. This advanced enveloped technology is intended to shield the virus from immune clearance, allowing virotherapy to effectively reach tumor sites, induce tumor lysis, and deliver potent gene therapies to metastatic locations.
The lead candidate from the Redtail platform, currently in IND-enabling studies, targets non-small cell lung cancer, ovarian cancer, and other tumor types with high unmet medical need. Additionally, Calidi is developing protected virotherapies, in clinical-stage, for intratumoral and localized administration, focusing on a subset of injectable cancer indications.
