Hookipa Pharma Inc. (NASDAQ: HOOK) is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing a new class of immunotherapeutics, targeting infectious diseases and cancers based on its proprietary arenavirus platform that is designed to reprogram the body`s immune system. HOOKIPA`s proprietary arenavirus-based technologies, VaxWave®*, a replication-deficient viral vector, and TheraT®*, a replication-attenuated viral vector, are designed to induce robust antigen specific CD8+ T cells and pathogen-neutralizing antibodies. Both technologies are designed to allow for repeat administration while maintaining an immune response. TheraT® has the potential to induce CD8+ T cell response levels previously not achieved by other published immuno-therapy approaches. HOOKIPA`s “off-the-shelf” viral vectors target dendritic cells in vivo to activate the immune system. HOOKIPA`s VaxWave®-based prophylactic cytomegalovirus vaccine candidate is currently in a Phase 2 clinical trial in patients awaiting kidney transplantation from living cytomegalovirus-positive donors. To expand its infectious disease portfolio, HOOKIPA has entered into a collaboration and licensing agreement with Gilead Sciences, Inc. to jointly research and develop functional cures for HIV and Hepatitis B infections. HOOKIPA is building a proprietary immuno-oncology pipeline by targeting virally mediated cancer antigens, self-antigens and next-generation antigens.

Founded in Finland in 2000, Nexstim is the world leader in Navigated Brain Stimulation (NBS) with image-guided Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS). The company is committed to improving the quality of life of patients. Nexstim has pioneered the technology for brain diagnostics with the Navigated Brain Stimulation (NBS) System as the first and only FDA-cleared and CE-marked navigated TMS (nTMS) device for pre-surgical mapping of the motor and speech cortices. The advanced technology providing navigation to TMS has led NBS to be recognized as the emerging standard for pre-operative direct functional mapping. Nexstim initiated its two year multicenter clinical trial on the therapeutic effects of nTMS for stroke rehabilitation in June 2014 with Navigated Brain Therapy
