About OncoSec Medical Inc.
OncoSec Medical Inc. is a
biopharmaceutical company developing its investigational
ImmunoPulse™ intratumoral cancer immunotherapy. OncoSec's core
technology is designed to enhance the local delivery and uptake of

profile and preliminary evidence of anti-tumor activity in the
treatment of various skin cancers, as well as the potential to

evaluating ImmunoPulse™ for the treatment of metastatic melanoma is
currently in Phase II development, and is being conducted in
collaboration with several prominent academic medical centers. As
