 or regulatory requirements or for other reasons, TuHURA’s clinical trials may be extended, delayed, or terminated and TuHURA may not be able to complete development of, obtain regulatory approval of or successfully commercialize its product candidates. As a result, TuHURA’s financial results and the commercial prospects for its product candidates would be harmed, its costs could increase, and its ability to generate revenue could be delayed.

Any agreements governing TuHURA’s relationships with CROs or other contractors with whom TuHURA currently engages or may engage in the future may provide those outside contractors with certain rights to terminate a clinical trial under specified circumstances. If any of TuHURA’s relationships with these third-party CROs terminate, TuHURA may not be able to enter into arrangements with alternative CROs or do so on commercially reasonable terms. Switching or adding additional CROs involves additional cost and requires management time and focus. In addition, there is a natural transition period when a new CRO begins work. As a result, delays occur, which can materially impact TuHURA’s ability to meet its desired clinical development timelines. Though TuHURA carefully manages its relationships with its CROs, there can be no assurance that TuHURA will not encounter similar challenges or delays in the future or that these delays or challenges will not have a material adverse impact on its business, financial condition, and prospects.

Under the Orphan Drug Act, the FDA may grant orphan designation to a drug or biologic intended to treat a rare disease or condition, defined as a disease or condition with a patient population of fewer than 200,000 in the United States, or a patient population greater than 200,000 in the United States when there is no reasonable expectation that the cost of developing and making available the drug or biologic in the United States will be recovered from sales in the United States for that drug or biologic. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting a BLA. In the United States, orphan drug designation entitles a party to financial incentives such as opportunities for grant funding towards clinical trial costs, tax advantages, and user-fee waivers. After the FDA grants orphan drug designation, the generic identity of the drug and its potential
