## What Inovio Pharmaceuticals does

Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. develops DNA medicines for diseases associated with human papillomavirus (HPV), cancer, and infectious diseases, along with proprietary electroporation devices used to deliver them. Its product candidates are drug-device combination products comprising an electroporation device for delivery of a biologic. Its most advanced program, INO-3107, is a DNA medicine for adults with RRP. In December 2025 the FDA accepted the company's BLA for INO-3107 for review under the accelerated approval program. The FDA granted a standard 10-month review rather than priority review, with a PDUFA target date of October 30, 2026. The FDA has noted as a potential review issue its preliminary conclusion that the company had not provided adequate information to justify eligibility for accelerated approval, and the FDA has agreed to meet with the company. The company has a small commercial organization and no in-house sales team. Its text also cites collaborations with Chinese companies, agreements with government agencies that may be terminated, and substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

| Product or program | What it is | Stage |
|---|---|---|
| INO-3107 | DNA medicine for adults with RRP under accelerated approval review | BLA accepted; PDUFA target date October 30, 2026 |
| CELLECTRA delivery devices | Electroporation devices used to deliver DNA medicines | marketing authorization required |
