Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On December 8, 2022, Anixa Biosciences, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that the maximum tolerated dose has been reached in the Phase 1a clinical trial of the Company’s preventative breast cancer vaccine technology that is being developed in collaboration with The Cleveland Clinic Foundation (the “Cleveland Clinic”). The press release, which is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto, was issued following a presentation made by certain members of Cleveland Clinic at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium. Furnished hereto as Exhibit 99.2 is the poster utilized for such presentation. Please see our risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as well as our other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for a discussion of the risks associated with our clinical trial.

 

Statements that are not historical fact may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are not statements of historical facts, but rather reflect our current expectations concerning future events and results. We generally use the words “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “likely,” “will” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements, including those concerning our clinical trials, involve risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control, which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks, uncertainties and factors include, but are not limited to, those factors set forth in “Item 1A - Risk Factors” and other sections of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K as well as in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. You are cautioned not to unduly rely on such forward-looking statements when evaluating the information presented in this Current Report.
