DANDRIT BIOTECH USA, INC.


 



Up to 2,400,000 Shares of Common Stock


 






We are offering up to $12,000,000 (2,400,000 shares) of our common stock at an assumed offering price of $5.00 per share in an initial public offering of our common stock. There is presently no public market for our common stock, however, we have applied for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board and the OTCQB.







 


We are an “emerging growth company” under the federal securities laws and will have the option to use reduced public company reporting requirements.


 


Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should review carefully the risks and uncertainties described under the heading “Risk Factors” beginning on page 9 of this prospectus, and under similar headings in any amendments or supplements to this prospectus.





 





Sunrise Securities Corp. and The Benchmark Company, LLC (each a “Placement Agent” and, collectively, the “Placement Agents”) are the placement agents for our initial public offering. The Placement Agents are not purchasing or selling any shares of common stock nor is it required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of common stock but will use their best efforts to sell the common stock offered. There are no minimum purchase requirements that must be met before the offering terminates. We have not arranged to place the funds from investors in an escrow, trust or similar account. Once your subscription is received, you will not have the right to withdraw your funds. Once your subscription has been accepted by us, offering proceeds will be deposited into our operating account and used to conduct our business and operations in accordance with the section of this prospectus titled “Use of Proceeds”. This offering will terminate on        , unless it is fully subscribed before that date or we decide to terminate the offering prior to that date. In either event, the offering may be closed without further notice to you.

(1) For the purpose of estimating the Placement Agents’ commission, we have assumed that the Placement Agents will receive the maximum commission on all sales made in the offering. The Placement Agents will only receive commissions from proceeds raised from investors introduced to us by the Placement Agents. This figure does not include up to an aggregate amount of $75,000 for fees and expenses of counsel to the Placement Agents and an accountable expense reimbursement fee of up to 1% of the gross proceeds of this offering. See “Plan of Distribution” for more information on this offering and the arrangements we have with the Placement Agents.


 



(2) Does not include offering expenses that we will be required to pay. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to closing this offering, the actual public offering amount, the Placement Agents’ commissions, and proceeds to us, if any, are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the total maximum offering set forth above. Once the offering price has been determined, it will remain fixed for the duration of the offering. See “Plan of Distribution” for more information on this offering and the arrangements we have with the Placement Agents.




 














 


The delivery of the shares of common stock will be made on or about                   , 2014.

You should read the entire prospectus, including the financial statements and related notes, and the risk factors under the section titled “Risk Factors”. Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, all references in this prospectus to “DanDrit,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” are to DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“DanDrit USA”), together with its wholly-owned subsidiary DanDrit Biotech A/S, a Danish limited company, organized under the Danish Act on Limited Companies of the Kingdom of Denmark (“DanDrit Denmark,” or the “Subsidiary”).


 




Overview


 




We are a biotechnology company seeking to develop what we believe could be the world’s first vaccine approved for the treatment of colorectal cancer. For more than a decade we have developed and patented vaccines successfully used in initial clinical trials in Europe and Asia including: (i) MelCancerVacTM (MCV) for treatment of cancer (one phase I/II trial in Denmark and two phase II trials in Denmark and Singapore), (ii) Tolerogenic (producing immunologic tolerance) dendritic cell (TDC) (pre-clinical stage in Denmark) and (iii) Melvaccine (MV) a melanoma cell lysate used as stand-alone vaccine (pre-clinical state in Denmark). We plan to continue the clinical development program in the United States. Springing from academic roots in Denmark, DanDrit has built upon its scientific and medical skills to advance candidate therapies, targeted initially at non-small-cell-lung-cancer (NSCLC) and colorectal cancer (CRC). In 2001, MCV was developed as a result of the combined efforts and research of DanDrit researchers and employees. On September 22, 2008, the Singapore government granted to DanDrit Denmark a named-patient compassionate use program of MCV. DanDrit’s dendritic cell vaccine, MCV, was evaluated in three single-arm Phase II clinical trials in cancer where MCV demonstrated potential efficacy. However, these three clinical trials generated data reported in published papers which indicated that the data needed to be confirmed in a larger, comparative randomized clinical trial. As a result, DanDrit, with the assistance of experienced practitioners in colorectal cancer treatment, designed a randomized trial with 174 stage IV colorectal cancer patients. Neither the US Federal Drug Administration (FDA) nor any other comparable governmental agency has reviewed MCV. Therefore, any assessment of its safety or efficacy only reflects the opinion of the Company. Furthermore, it does not indicate that MCV will achieve favorable results in any later stage trials or that the FDA or comparable agency will ultimately determine that MCV is safe and effective for purposes of granting marketing approval.


 


Our Biotechnology






 



We plan to use a dendritic cell vaccine technology relatively similar to the technology behind Dendreon’s FDA approved ProvengeTM cancer vaccine. However, we believe DanDrit’s next generation of dendritic cell vaccine may benefit from technological competitive advantages over other cancer vaccines including:




 



	
  

	
●

	



The vaccine will be generated within eight days from a patient’s peripheral blood. We will be able to generate the vaccine quickly because only 200 ml of blood is required. Leukapheresis, a medical technology in which the blood of a patient is passed through an apparatus (similar to a dialysis machine) that separates out one particular constituent and returns the remainder to the circulation which is used in Dendreon’s ProvengeTM cancer vaccine, can be used but is not needed.


 














	
  

	
●

	


The vaccine will use an allogenic (using cells, tissues, or organs, sourced from a genetically non-identical member of the same species as the recipient (“Allogenic”) tumor lysate (a fluid containing the contents of lysed cells (lysis referring to the breaking down of a cell and a fluid containing the contents of lysed cells referred to as a “lysate”) as opposed to inconvenient autologous (from the patient) tumor lysate. A major limitation of autologous tumor cell vaccines is the low yield of autologous tumor cells that may compromise the number of immunizations given to patients (difficult to obtain enough cancer cells from the patient).  A second inconvenience is the variability of GM-CSF (a protein that functions as a white blood cell growth factor) secretion among patients, which could be responsible for the different levels of responses observed. But above all, although autologous tumor cells may be a good source of tumor-associated antigens, present on some tumor cells and some normal cells (as opposed to tumor specific antigens only present on tumor cells) (TAA) for cancer vaccine development, limitations plus the significant time and expense required for the approval of each patient’s vaccine by the appropriate regulatory agencies severely limit the development of this type of immunization approach. DanDrit does not need a patient’s tumor cells to manufacture MCV.  Therefore MCV is not classified as an autologous vaccine.


 












	
  

	
●

	

The vaccine will be polytopic (targets several cancer specific antigens). As a result, the risk of the tumor escaping is more limited and more T-cells can be activated than if the vaccine is targeting one antigen only. However, MCV has a focus on melanoma-associated antigen (“MAGE”)-A antigens that are only expressed by tumors (in many different types of cancer – not only melanoma) and absent in normal tissues.




 








	
  

	
●

	
Fast track production in two days is possible.







 


Our Proposed Clinical Trial


 





Parallel with the establishment of a cancer vaccine center in the European Union (“EU”), DanDrit intends to develop globally MCV in colorectal cancer, with opportunities to expand the scope of the treatment to other types of cancers after development in colorectal cancer. DanDrit proposes to focus its development program on a randomized multicenter Phase IIb/III clinical trial in stage IV colorectal cancer to be initiated in Italy. The proposed Proof of Concept (PoC) study with an adaptive seamless design plans to enroll 174 stage IV colorectal cancer patients after surgical resection of metastases and chemotherapy. The traditional drug clinical development is a sequence of independent trials or phases, where each phase has a different research objective, such as, determining the maximum toxicity point at which the drug can be administered (Phase I), assessing dosing requirements (Phase IIA) and determining efficacy at a prescribed dose (Phase IIB). Each phase of the drug development may also have a different group of randomized participants. A trial that is designed as an adaptive seamless clinical trial refers to a trial that combines the objectives of what are typically separate trials into a single uninterrupted trial with multiple objectives. Usually, the patient participants in this trial are constant and monitored through the course of the various phases and are not re-randomized except for new enrollments. Regulatory authorities in the United States and Europe have published guidance documents on the use and implementation of adaptive design trials. These documents include descriptions of adaptive trials and a requirement for prospectively written standard operating procedures and working processes for executing adaptive trials as well as a recommendation that sponsor companies engage with CROs that have the necessary experience in running such trials.

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 





The proposed patients for the Phase IIb/III clinical trial have no evidence of disease but are not cured of cancer. Their Progression Free Survival (PFS), which refers to the length of time during and after treatment that a patient lives with the disease which does not get worse, is only 24 to 26 months. The objective of this multicenter Phase IIb/III clinical study is to lengthen the survival of these patients. Treatment will be double blinded (to the patients and physicians) against reference therapy. Patients will be included after surgical resection of their primary tumor and resectable metastases in liver and after appropriate peri-operative chemotherapy by stratification and random assignment to a non-vaccine control group or a vaccine group receiving five vaccinations with 14-day administration intervals followed by five vaccines with two-month intervals. Inclusion will take place one month after finishing the last round of peri-operative chemotherapy (FOLFOX or FOLFIRI) and after a negative tumor scan (head, thoracic and abdominal cavities) and normal carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) prior to inclusion in the vaccine or the control groups. Patients will be screened for MAGE-A expression. The control group will receive five plus five injections with physiological saline. In the event of disease progression, as verified by tumor scan and biomarker levels during the vaccination schedule, vaccinations will be discontinued.


 




The initial Phase IIb/III trials are currently contemplated to be initiated in Italy. Following the initial closing of the offering described in the Registration Statement, we intend to file an Investigational Medicinal Product Dossier (IMPD) in Italy which is required to obtain a clinical trial authorization (CTA) to begin trials in any Europe state.  The IMPD and CTA review and approval process is anticipated to take approximately two-three months, and we anticipate that patients will begin to be enrolled for the Phase IIb/III trials in Italy in October or November of 2014.  DanDrit has not filed an investigational new drug (IND) application with the FDA in relation to the proposed trial but anticipates filing an IND application with the FDA by the end of 2014 to initiate the process to permit manufacturing capability of MCV in the U.S. and to include U.S. patients in the PhaseIIb/III trials.  Once an IND application has been filed in the U.S., we believe that we will be able to expand the PhaseIIb/III trials initiated in Italy to the U.S. but we cannot estimate at this time when we will be able to begin enrolling U.S. patients in the trial. Although we were a sponsor for only one of the three MCV clinical trials completed to date, we have obtained the case report forms (CRF) with respect to two of the three trials and have requested the CRFs with respect to the third trial and therefore we intend to present the results obtained from the MCV clinical trials for all trials in which we have been able to obtain the related CRFs to the FDA in connection with our IND application, when filed.  While we were not the sponsor or principal investigator for all of the trials, certain employees and directors of DanDrit were significantly involved in the design of the study and the analysis and interpretation of the data in all three studies and therefore believe that any weight applied to such trial in connection with our IND application will be focused on the results and data of the trials derived from the studies and disclosed in published papers or otherwise reflected in the CRFs rather than the level of our participation. In addition, we believe that the data received in connection with the Phase IIB/III trials contemplated to be initiated in Italy, will have the greatest weight applied in connection with its IND application anticipated to be filed with the FDA (see “Clinical Trials Data and Product Approvals).




  


Our Competitive Strengths










 


We believe the following strengths position us to increase our revenue and profitability:


 




	  	
●

	
Cutting Edge Technology. We believe, based on the current state of research, that immunotherapy is one of the waves of the future in cancer management.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Colorectal Therapy Potential. We believe the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer represents an opportunity to meet a well identified medical need for safe maintenance therapy. We believe the clinical data for MCV to date shows the potential for the vaccine to eventually become a standard of care for maintenance therapy. We believe, based on the available studies to date, that MCV has the potential to prolong periods of remission after response to chemotherapy. If MCV works as expected in advanced colorectal cancer, we believe it would likely prove beneficial in other tumors that over-express MAGE-A including lung, breast and esophageal cancers.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Regulatory Precedent. With ProvengeTM, its prostate cancer vaccine, Dendreon pioneered the regulatory pathway for MCV. Dendreon worked with the FDA to develop the protocols which could allow a cellular therapy such as MCV to be approved for clinical use. We believe that DanDrit is the next generation of dendritic cell vaccine with several improvements over its competition: stimulate a cellular immune response rather than just an antibody response, no need for leukapheresis to produce the vaccine, intradermal administration, convenience of an Allogenic vaccine (off-the-shelf cancer specific antigens), polytopic approach but with a focus on the MAGE-A antigen family and reliable cost-efficient manufacturing.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Use in Singapore. For the last five years, DanDrit and the Singapore National Cancer Center have provided MCV to colorectal cancer patients within an on-going compassionate use program in Singapore.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Strong IP Protection. The technology is patented with a long patent life. DanDrit owns 100% of the technology.









 


Our Strategy


 


Our strategy is focused on conducting a proof-of-concept clinical trial in advanced colorectal cancer. DanDrit intends to conduct a randomized multicenter Phase IIb/III clinical trial to determine the ability of MCV to prevent recidivism in stage IV colorectal patients with no evidence of disease after resection of metastasis and chemotherapy. This blinded comparative trial is planned to be completed within three years. We believe that positive clinical data will be the catalyst to unlock commercial revenues for DanDrit through either acquisition by pharmaceutical partner or licensing deals that would yield upfront and milestone payments as well as royalties or other strategic directions the Company may consider.


 


Furthermore, parallel to the previously described clinical trial, DanDrit may pursue a registration trial to support potential approval of MCV in China. This trial would be conducted under China’s State Food and Drug Administration (the “SFDA”) regulations with a Chinese oncology pharmaceutical partner. China has recently put in place a drug approval system.


 



DanDrit is headquartered in and runs operations from Denmark. However, DanDrit intends to establish a dendritic cell cancer vaccine good manufacturing practices (GMP) laboratory in the United States.




 


Industry Overview


 


We believe that major advances have been made the last three years in the field of immunotherapy. Molecular and cellular mechanisms controlling the immune system’s battle against cancer cells are now better understood.

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 



However, cancer remains mostly treated by surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The current therapeutic approach is aggressive on the patient with significant side effects. Immunotherapy, however, can potentially solve these problems because the immune system, with its high level of specificity, can zero in on cancer cells that surgeons, drugs and radiations cannot reach.


 


For example, according to Dr. Adam Snook, “Our immune system is characterized by remarkable specificity, potency and memory – the ability of a single vaccine treatment to provide life-long-protection. No pharmacologic treatment for any indication can provide the same level of safety, efficacy, and long lasting effect than a vaccine can.”


 


In 2010, Dendreon published positive Phase III survival data for its immunotherapy, called ProvengeTM, in prostate cancer. During the last three years, we believe the field of cancer immunotherapy has been fast evolving. There has been recently positive clinical data (i.e. anti-programmed cell death protein-1) and approval of several immunotherapies for cancer. We believe that dendritic cell vaccines such as MCV are among the potential developments in the treatment of cancer.


 


CRC is the second largest cancer market in terms of numbers of patients diagnosed. In 2010, a total of around 1.58 million individuals were affected by CRC in the seven major markets, including the US, Japan, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK. CRC was the leading cause of cancer prevalence among men and second among women in Europe. It was also observed that higher survival rates correlated with higher prevalence.


 


According to Decision Resources, the CRC market totaled $8.3 billion in 2011. The value of the CRC market is expected to decrease in the next ten years due to generic competition for a key cytotoxic agent, oxaliplatin (Sanofi’s Eloxatin/Eloxatine, Yakult Honsha’s Elplat), as well as the entry of biosimilar competitors for key targeted biological agents. In terms of number of patients, despite the risk being strongly associated with age, the effect of population aging may be limited by reduced risk of invasive disease due to screening at least in developed countries.




 




DanDrit develops MCV for the management of metastatic CRC (stage IV). Currently, about 20% of CRC patients are diagnosed with metastatic disease. Forecast improvements in the observed survival in the metastatic setting will increase the number of people living with metastatic CRC over the next 20 years, despite the number developing metastatic disease per year remaining relatively stable due to the combined effects of screening and forecast improvements in the management of metastatic recurrence.


 






Treatment of advanced CRC typically involves removal of sections of the colon (colectomy) or rerouting of the intestine by colostomy. Chemotherapy is also used to treat patients with stage IV colon cancer. Irinotecan, oxaliplatin, and 5-fluorouracil are the three most commonly used drugs. In addition, monoclonal antibodies, including cetuximab (Erbitux), panitumumab (Vectibix), and bevacizumab (Avastin) have been used alone or in combination with chemotherapy. CRC is considered cured in the absence of a recurrence within the first five years. Five year survival rates associated with CRC are as high as 90% in early stage disease, and 40–60% in late-stage disease. Stage I, II and III cancers are considered potentially curable. In most cases, stage IV cancer is not curable. Therefore, there is an unmet need for a safe maintenance therapy of stage IV CRC after surgery and chemotherapy.


 


Corporate History and Information


 




DanDrit was incorporated in Delaware on January 18, 2011 under the name “Putnam Hills Corp.” (“Putnam”) as a vehicle to pursue a business combination through the acquisition of, or merger with, an operating business. We filed a Registration Statement on Form 10 with the SEC on August 12, 2011.


 


On February 12, 2014, the Company signed and consummated the transactions contemplated by a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Share Exchange Agreement"), by and among DanDrit USA, DanDrit Denmark and N.E. Nielsen, as the representative of the shareholders of DanDrit Denmark, pursuant to which the Company will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding equity securities in Dandrit Denmark in exchange for 6,000,000 of the issued and outstanding shares common stock par value $0.0001 per share of the Company. The initial share exchange was closed on February 12, 2014 pursuant to which holders of approximately 97% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of DanDrit Denmark (the “DanDrit Consenting Holders”) exchanged an aggregate of 3,879,624 equity interests of DanDrit Denmark for 5,814,947 shares of DanDrit USA (the “Share Exchange”) and as a result of which Putnam would become the parent of DanDrit Denmark. In accordance with Section 70 of the Danish Companies Act and the Articles of Association of DanDrit Denmark, DanDrit Denmark shareholders who have not consented to the Share Exchange (the “Non-Consenting Shareholders”) and therefore have not exchanged such DanDrit Denmark shareholder’s equity interests in DanDrit Denmark for shares of DanDrit USA, will be entitled to receive the 185,053 shares of common stock of DanDrit USA, reflected as issued and outstanding, that each such DanDrit Denmark shareholder would have been entitled to receive if such DanDrit Denmark shareholder had consented to the Share Exchange, up to an aggregate of 185,053 shares of common stock of DanDrit USA. As a result of the Share Exchange, the former shareholders of Dandrit Denmark became the controlling shareholders of the Company. The Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse takeover/recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein Dandrit Denmark is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The capital, share price, and earnings per share amount in these consolidated financial statements for the period prior to the reverse merger were restated to reflect the recapitalization in accordance with the exchange ratio established in the merger.

TABLE OF CONTENTS







 



Upon the closing of the Share Exchange, DanDrit USA and its majority shareholder immediately prior to the closing agreed to cancel up to 4,400,000 shares of our common stock.  In addition, following the closing of the Share Exchange, DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company merged with and into the Company, thereby changing the Company’s name to “DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc.”




 



DanDrit USA owns approximately 97% of the outstanding equity interests of DanDrit Denmark. As a result of the Share Exchange, we changed our management and reconstituted our board of directors. As of the effective time of the Share Exchange, Samir Masri, the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary and sole director of Putnam resigned as the sole officer and director of Putnam and appointed NE Nielsen, Dr. Jacob Rosenberg, Dr. Eric Leire, Aldo Petersen and Robert E. Wolfe as directors of Putnam, and Dr. Eric Leire as Chief Executive Officer and President and Mr. Wolfe as Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary.

Implications of being an Emerging Growth Company


 


As a company with less than $1.0 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or JOBS Act, enacted in April 2012. An “emerging growth company” may take advantage of reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise applicable to public companies. These provisions include, but are not limited to:


 



Financial Disclosure. The financial disclosure in a registration statement filed by an “emerging growth company” pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), will differ from registration statements filed by other companies as follows:




 




	  	
●

	
audited financial statements are required for only two fiscal years;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
selected financial data is required for only the fiscal years that were audited;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
executive compensation only needs to be presented in the limited format now required for “smaller reporting companies”.









 


Because we are a smaller reporting company, we are already provided with the above exemptions under Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act.


 


The JOBS Act also exempts us from any Public Company Accounting Oversight Board rules that, if adopted, would mandate auditor rotation or auditor discussion and analysis.


 


Internal Control Attestation. The JOBS Act provides an exemption to emerging growth companies from the audit of internal controls over financial reporting. We are also exempt from this requirement as a smaller reporting company.


 



Shareholder Advisory Votes. Section 102(a) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from the requirements in Sections 14A(a) and (b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) to hold shareholder advisory votes approving executive compensation and golden parachute compensation paid in connection with an acquisition, merger, consolidation, or proposed sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets of an issuer.

TABLE OF CONTENTS







 


Information about an Emerging Growth Company. Section 105(a) of the JOBS Act amended the Securities Act to provide an exception from the definition of the word “offer” for purposes of Sections 2(a)(10) and 5(c) of the Securities Act for research reports issued by a broker-dealer regarding an emerging growth company that is the subject of a proposed public equity offering.


 


The JOBS Act also prohibits the SEC and FINRA from adopting or maintaining any rule or regulation in connection with an initial public offering of an emerging growth company that restricts, based on “functional role”, which employees of a broker-dealer may arrange for communications between research analysts and prospective investors; prohibits research analysts from participating in communication with company management in the presence of non-research personnel such as investment banking or sales force personnel; or which prohibits the publication or distribution of a research report or making of a public appearance within any prescribed period of time either following the pricing date of the emerging growth company’s initial public offering or prior to the expiration of a company or shareholder lock-up agreement.


 




Election to Opt Out of Transition Period. Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standard.


 


The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. We have not elected to opt out of the transition period.


 




We may take advantage of these provisions until the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of our common equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, which such fifth anniversary will occur in 2018. However, if certain events occur prior to the end of such five-year period, including if we become a “large accelerated filer,” our annual gross revenues exceed $1.0 billion or we issue more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt in any three-year period, we will cease to be an emerging growth company prior to the end of such five-year period.


 






Because we have elected to take advantage of certain of the reduced disclosure obligations and may elect to take advantage of other reduced reporting requirements in future filings, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different than you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests.

THE OFFERING


 




	
Common stock offered by us

	  	
Up to 2,400,000 shares on a best efforts basis.


	  	  	  
	
Common stock outstanding prior to the offering

	  	

8,040,000 shares, including 185,053 shares of common stock reserved for issuance to the Non-Consenting Shareholders of DanDrit Denmark and deemed issued and outstanding for accounting purposes.




	  	  	  
	
Common stock to be outstanding after the offering

	  	
Up to 10,440,000 shares.


	  	  	  
	
Use of proceeds

	  	
Based on an assumed offering price of $5.00 per share, after deducting the placement agents’ commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, we estimate that we will receive up to $10,785,464 in net proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock in this offering. However, this is a best efforts offering, and there can be no assurance that the offering contemplated hereby will ultimately be consummated.


 


We intend to use the proceeds from this offering to invest approximately (i) $830,000 for the manufacturing of our products, (ii) $2,670,656 in SG&A/Administration, (iii) $526,689 in debt repayment to Sune Olsen Holding ApS, a shareholder, and (iv) $6,758,120 in our clinical trial. All remaining proceeds will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.


 


If we are unable to raise gross proceeds equal to at least $12,000,000, we intend to first apply the proceeds towards $526,689 in outstanding debt to Sune Olsen Holding ApS, a shareholder, and then towards the development and marketing of our products and the engineering, development and testing of vaccines. However, to the extent that we are unable to raise a sufficient amount of proceeds in this offering, we may not be able to achieve all our business objectives in a timely manner.


 


In the event that we file a post-effective amendment to increase the offering amount pursuant to Rule 462(b) of the Securities Act, we plan to allocate the extra funds in strengthening our Phase II/III clinical trial with a larger sample size and in targeting patients with stage III colorectal cancer rather than metastatic (stage IV) colorectal cancer patients.


 


See “Use of Proceeds” for more information.


	  	  	  
	
Potential purchases by affiliates

	  	
Certain of our affiliates may purchase shares of our common stock in this offering on the same terms as they are offered and sold to the public.


	  	  	  
	
Risk factors

	  	
The shares of common stock offered hereby involve a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors”.


	  	  	  
	
Dividend policy

	  	
We currently intend to retain any future earnings to fund the development and growth of our business. Therefore, we do not currently anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock.


	  	  	  
	
Trading Symbol

	  	
There is not currently, and there has never been, any market for our common stock. In connection with this offering, we intend to arrange for a registered broker-dealer to apply to have our common stock quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board and on the OTCQB. We cannot guarantee that our application will be approved.


	  	  	   
	
Lock-Up

	  	
All of the DanDrit Consenting Shareholders that were issued shares of common stock in the Share Exchange are subject to a lock-up agreement for a 180 day period beginning as of the filing date of the last amendment to the registration statement filed in connection with this Offering that is declared effective (the “Lock-Up Period”). The one selling shareholder (the “Security Holder”) identified in the Resale Prospectus will also be subject to a lock-up agreement restricting any sales of the Company’s common stock during the Lock-up Period. See “Plan of Distribution”. The Company will not receive any proceeds from the Resale of the shares of Common Stock by the Security Holder.

Summary Consolidated Financial Data


 



The following table sets forth selected historical statements of operations for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013; and balance sheet data as of December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014. As a result of the reverse acquisition resulting from the Share Exchange, DanDrit Denmark is considered the accounting acquirer in the Share Exchange and the assets and liabilities and the historical operations that are reflected in our financial statements are those of DanDrit Denmark. Therefore, the historical financial data of DanDrit Denmark is deemed to be our historical financial data; provided, however, that all amounts have been restated to reflect the recapitalization of the exchange ratio applied as a result of the Share Exchange.







 


The balance sheet data as of December 31, 2013 and the statement of operations data for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 have been derived from our audited financial statements for those years included elsewhere in this prospectus.

(1) As a result of the Share Exchange, the former shareholders of DanDrit Denmark became the controlling shareholders of the Company. The Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse takeover/recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein DanDrit Denmark is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The capital, share price, and earnings per share amount in these consolidated financial statements for the period prior to the reverse merger were restated to reflect the recapitalization in accordance with the exchange ratio established in the merger.

RISK FACTORS




 



You should carefully consider and evaluate all of the information in this prospectus, including the risk factors listed below. Risks and uncertainties in addition to those we describe below, that may not be presently known to us, or that may also harm our business and operations. If any of these risks occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be harmed, the price of our common stock could decline, and future events and circumstances could differ significantly from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus.


 




All references to DanDrit’s drugs and vaccine candidates in this section refer to DanDrit drugs and vaccine candidates that DanDrit developed in-house.


 


RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH DANDRIT’S BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY


 


DanDrit lacks an established operating history on which to evaluate its business and determine if it will be able to execute our business plan, and can give no assurance that operations will result in profits.



 




DanDrit was formed in Delaware in January 2011 as a vehicle to pursue a business combination through the acquisition of, or merger with, an operating business.  


 



On February 12, 2014, the Company completed the Share Exchange as described herein, as a result of which it adopted the business and management of DanDrit Denmark.




 




DanDrit has a limited operating history that makes it difficult to evaluate its business.  DanDrit has not begun sales of its products, and cannot say with certainty when it will begin to achieve profitability.  No assurance can be made that DanDrit will ever derive meaningful revenues or become profitable.




  





DanDrit has incurred losses in prior periods and expect to incur losses in the future. DanDrit may never be profitable.


 





DanDrit’s independent registered public accounting firm has issued an unqualified opinion with an explanatory paragraph to the effect that there is substantial doubt about DanDrit’s ability to continue as a going concern. This unqualified opinion with an explanatory paragraph could have a material adverse effect on DanDrit’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.


 







DanDrit had net losses at March 31, 2014 and 2013 of $426,054 and $399,072, respectively and December 31, 2013 and 2012 of $2,147,361 and $2,427,649, respectively and an accumulated deficit at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 of $19,947,180 and $19,521,126, respectively. DanDrit expects to continue to sustain losses for the foreseeable future.




 






As sales of DanDrit’s products have generated minimal operating revenues, DanDrit has relied on loans and on sales of its debt and equity securities to continue operations. If DanDrit is unable to raise funds through sales of its securities, there can be no assurance that DanDrit will be able to implement its business plan, generate sustainable revenue or ever achieve profitable operations. DanDrit expects to have operating losses until such time as it develops a substantial and stable revenue base. DanDrit cannot assure you that it can achieve or sustain profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future.


 


DanDrit may not be able to develop its vaccine candidates to yield satisfactory results and they may never be approved for use by regulatory authorities. If DanDrit is unable to successfully commercialize its vaccines, its prospects, financial position, results of operations and future opportunities will be materially adversely affected.


 


None of DanDrit’s vaccine candidates has completed full clinical development. Because DanDrit’s vaccine candidates generally belong to new classes of cell therapy, they will require extensive further development, testing and funding before we can seek regulatory approval for any of these vaccines.


 



DanDrit’s prospects in the short term, including DanDrit’s ability to generate revenue and make new strategic alliances, depend on DanDrit’s ability to develop, obtain regulatory approval for and commercialize its current vaccine candidates with satisfactory results. If DanDrit fails to develop its vaccine candidates, it will have a material adverse effect on DanDrit’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth opportunities.


 





There can be no assurance that DanDrit will succeed in implementing its Phase IIb/III clinical trials for advanced colorectal cancer so that the results of these clinical trials will support further preclinical or clinical studies, or that DanDrit will be able to develop new vaccine candidates or successfully commercialize any of those cancer vaccine candidates at a later time. If DanDrit does not do this, we cannot achieve our growth potential and this will have a material adverse effect on our prospects, financial position, results of operations and future opportunities.

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 



Results of the early clinical trials do not insure future success.




 


The results of early clinical trials may not necessarily be indicative of future results. Achieving positive results in preclinical testing and early clinical trials does not constitute any assurance that in future clinical trials sufficient data can be obtained to document a vaccine candidate’s efficacy and safety. The safety and efficacy of a vaccine candidate in development must be supported by extensive data from preclinical studies and clinical trials.


 



A number of companies in the pharmaceutical industry and in the biopharmaceutical industry, including companies that have greater resources and more experience than DanDrit, have achieved significant negative results in clinical phase IIb and III trials, even after obtaining promising results in preclinical and early clinical studies. Results that are considered acceptable in early clinical studies may not be confirmed or may be interpreted differently in subsequent studies. DanDrit cannot predict whether the clinical phase IIb and III and other clinical trials that may be implemented will demonstrate sufficient efficacy and safety to obtain regulatory approval to market any of DanDrit’s vaccine candidates.




 


Negative or non-satisfactory results of clinical trials involving DanDrit’s vaccine candidates could lead to DanDrit or its collaborators having to perform additional nonclinical and/or clinical trials, which could result in higher costs and significantly delay the marketing authorization application for such vaccine candidates by the regulatory authority, or could lead to an application for a more narrowly defined use, or another indication for the vaccine candidate than originally expected. Such results could also lead to the complete elimination of a vaccine candidate. If any of these risks materialize, it could have a material adverse effect on DanDrit’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth opportunities.


 


We are a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company which makes it difficult to assess our future viability.


 


We are a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company. We have not yet demonstrated an ability to successfully overcome many of the risks and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies in new and rapidly evolving fields, particularly in the biopharmaceutical area. For example, to execute our business plan, we will need to successfully:


 




	  	
●

	
execute on product candidate development activities;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
obtain required regulatory approvals for the development and commercialization of our product candidates;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
maintain, leverage and expand our intellectual property portfolio;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
gain market acceptance for our products;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
develop and maintain any strategic relationships we elect to enter into; and;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
manage our spending as costs and expenses increase due to preclinical development, clinical trials, regulatory approvals and commercialization.









 


If we are unsuccessful in accomplishing these objectives, we may not be able to develop product candidates, raise capital, expand our business or continue our operations.


 


DanDrit will be dependent on collaboration and licensing arrangement to develop and commercialize its products. These relationships may be unsuccessful and may not result in the development of vaccine candidates. In that case, our business, financial condition and growth opportunities will be materially adversely affected.


 


DanDrit expects to depend on collaboration and licensing agreements with third parties who we expected will provide additional personnel and other resources and funding required to develop and commercialize its products. Until these relationships are established, our plans for developing some of our vaccines may be uncertain. There can be no assurance that DanDrit will be able to enter into or maintain these agreements, that the results of these agreements will further the development of a vaccine, or that DanDrit will receive income from these agreements. Furthermore, collaborators that we anticipate may enter into agreements with us may change their priorities; make reallocation of resources; terminate the agreements; end or further delay the development of vaccine candidates; downgrade or change plans or strategies for regulatory approval or commercialization of the vaccine candidate; find it difficult to retain key employees; or be taken over by companies that are our competitors.


 


We expect that these collaboration and licensing agreements will entitle us to milestone payments and a percentage of sales related to the vaccine candidates that are commercialized. If a third party with which DanDrit has established a collaboration or licensing arrangement stops the development of a vaccine candidate, there can be no assurance that all rights in respect of the vaccine candidate will be reassigned to us. A transfer of these rights may be delayed for various reasons, which may result in the delay of all work performed for the vaccine candidate.

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 


Since we are dependent on third parties to develop and commercialize our product candidates, any change in these anticipated relationships will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and future growth opportunities.


 


Regulatory requirements and regulations could have a material adverse effect on DanDrit.


 


DanDrit’s products are subject to extensive regulatory requirements, including public and/or regulatory limits set by the FDA and the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”). These laws and regulations, including those relating to reporting on safety, product safety and advertising and marketing of products cover all aspects of DanDrit’s business.


 


DanDrit and/or any future third party with which it has an effective collaboration or licensing agreement may be subject to changes in applicable governmental regulations and/or regulatory framework and be subject to additional or more onerous restrictions, which may make it necessary to make changes to personnel, facilities or procedures that could result in increased costs and adversely affect DanDrit’s business activities, including the development and commercialization of DanDrit’s vaccine candidates.


 



If DanDrit or its affiliates do not comply with applicable regulatory requirements or comply with significant legislative changes, DanDrit or its affiliates may be fined or risk having regulatory approvals suspended or withdrawn, risking recall or seizure of products, restrictions on activities and/or civil or criminal prosecution, which could have a material adverse effect on DanDrit’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth opportunities. Furthermore, we cannot guarantee that our vaccine candidates will be approved by the regulating agencies.




 


As long as the relevant regulatory authorities have not considered and approved applications for DanDrit’s vaccine candidates (New Drug Application (NDA) or equivalent) DanDrit and its affiliates cannot commercialize DanDrit’s vaccine candidates. Production and marketing of DanDrit’s products and DanDrit’s ongoing research and development activities are subject to rules set by numerous public authorities throughout the world. The regulatory authorities of each country can set their own requirements and may refuse to approve a product or may require additional data before approving a product, even if the product is approved by another regulating agency. Approvals may include restrictions on the marketing or use of products, which could adversely affect the amount of DanDrit’s revenue from the sale of those products.


 



We are conducting, and may in the future conduct, clinical trials for MCV or any future product candidates in sites outside the United States and the FDA may not accept data from trials conducted in such locations.


 


We have conducted, and may in the future choose to conduct, one or more of our clinical trials outside of the United States. Although the FDA may accept data from clinical trials conducted outside the United States, acceptance of this data is subject to certain conditions imposed by the FDA. For example, the clinical trial must be well designed and conducted and performed by qualified investigators in accordance with ethical principles. The study population must also adequately represent the U.S. population, and the data must be applicable to the U.S. population and U.S. medical practice in ways that the FDA deems clinically meaningful. Generally, the patient population for any clinical studies conducted outside of the United States must be representative of the population for whom we intend to label the product in the United States. In addition, while these clinical trials are subject to the applicable local laws, FDA acceptance of the data will be dependent upon its determination that the studies also complied with all applicable U.S. laws and regulations. There can be no assurance the FDA will accept data from trials conducted outside of the United States. If the FDA does not accept the data from our clinical trial conducted outside the United States, it would likely result in the need for additional trials within the United States, which would be costly and time-consuming and delay or permanently halt our development of MCV or any future vaccine candidates.


 


In connection with the anticipated filing of our IND application with the FDA, we plan to submit trial results for trials we did not sponsor, which the FDA may refuse to consider.









DanDrit was only a sponsor of one of the clinical trials completed to date for MCV and while DanDrit Denmark employees and certain affiliates were closely involved in the design of the studies and the analysis and interpretation of the resulting data of all three studies. As a result, DanDrit intends to present all applicable data with respect to the current trials that is available to it, regardless of DanDrit’s specific role in any one of the trials.  There are no assurances that the FDA will accept any data for any clinical trial in which it was not a sponsor or principal investigator that DanDrit submits in support of its IND application.




 






There can be no assurance that regulators will complete their review process in a timely manner, or that DanDrit vaccine candidates will obtain regulatory approval.


 


If DanDrit or any third party with which we have an effective collaboration or licensing agreement experience difficulties or delays in obtaining regulatory approvals, the development and commercialization of our vaccine candidates may be significantly delayed or even discontinued. Such difficulties or delays could result in significantly increased development costs and/or a delay or elimination of payments to us from our collaborators. This would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth opportunities.


 


DanDrit will be dependent on external suppliers of certain services and technologies.


 


DanDrit will be dependent on a number of external parties such as contract laboratories and clinical research organizations, and in some cases our collaborators to:


 




	  	
●

	
Implement preclinical studies (pharmacology, toxicology testing and safety pharmacological evaluations).


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Provide DanDrit with vaccine materials and support DanDrit’s activities related to preclinical and clinical studies.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Implement, inspect and/or monitor some or all aspects of the preclinical or clinical studies with DanDrit’s product candidates.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Ensure compliance with regulatory requirements such as Good Clinical Practice (“GCP”), Good Manufacturing Practice (“GMP”) and Good Laboratory Practices (“GLP”).


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Deliver IT services.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Produce vaccine drugs and vaccines in accordance with GMP. The third parties DanDrit depends on may not be available when needed, or might not, if available, comply with all statutory and contractual requirements, and / or otherwise provide their services in a timely manner or in an acceptable manner.

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 


DanDrit is dependent on its ability to recruit and retain qualified scientific and management personnel.


 


Recruiting and retaining qualified scientific and management personnel for the planning and execution of research and development; preparation of applications for intellectual property rights and regulatory approvals; and negotiating and maintaining cooperation with existing and new partners is essential for DanDrit.


 


While DanDrit has not thus far experienced any difficulty in recruiting and retaining qualified scientific and management personnel, DanDrit may in the future require additional expertise and manpower in areas such as preclinical trials, management of clinical trials, regulatory affairs, marketing, business development and management of partnerships. There can be no assurance that DanDrit will continue to be able to attract and retain such persons in light of demand for experienced employees from numerous pharmaceutical companies, chemical companies, specialized biopharmaceutical companies, universities and other research institutions. DanDrit’s employment contracts contain no limitation on competition that would prevent DanDrit’s current employees from being employed by DanDrit’s competitors or partners, if they choose to leave DanDrit. Inability to obtain or develop such expertise, or hire the employees they need, on reasonable terms, could have a material adverse effect on DanDrit’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth opportunities.


 



If our employees commit fraud or other misconduct, including noncompliance with regulatory standards, our business may experience serious adverse consequences.




 


DanDrit is exposed to the risk of employee fraud or other misconduct. Misconduct by employees could include intentional failures to comply with FDA regulations, to provide accurate information to the FDA, to comply with manufacturing standards we have established, to comply with federal and state health-care fraud and abuse laws and regulations, to report financial information or data accurately or to disclose unauthorized activities to us.


 


In particular, sales, marketing and business arrangements in the healthcare industry are subject to extensive laws and regulations intended to prevent fraud, kickbacks, self-dealing and other abusive practices. These laws and regulations may restrict or prohibit a wide range of pricing, discounting, marketing and promotion, sales commission, customer incentive programs and other business arrangements. Employee misconduct could also involve the improper use of information obtained in the course of clinical trials, which could result in regulatory sanctions and serious harm to our reputation. We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics but it is not always possible to identify and deter employee misconduct, and the precautions we take to detect and prevent this activity may not be effective in controlling unknown or unmanaged risks or losses or in protecting us from governmental investigations or other actions or lawsuits stemming from a failure to be in compliance with such laws or regulations. If any such actions are instituted against us, and we are not successful in defending ourselves or asserting our rights, those actions could have a significant impact on our business, including the imposition of significant fines or other sanctions.


 


DanDrit’s products may not achieve market acceptance. This would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth opportunities.


 



The drugs DanDrit or its collaborators may develop, may not gain market acceptance among physicians, patients, third-party payors and the medical community, even if they are approved for marketing. The degree of market acceptance of the products approved for sale depends on a number of factors, including:


 




	  	
●

	
The ability of DanDrit or its collaborators to demonstrate the clinical efficacy, safety and benefits of the products.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
The ability of DanDrit or its collaborators to demonstrate that the product has advantages over existing therapies or new alternative treatments.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
The frequency and severity of any adverse effects arising from the use of the products.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
The price of the products.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
The subsidies DanDrit receives.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Efficacy within the therapeutic range for the illnesses the products are directed towards.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Patient comfort and user administration.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Requirements for marking.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
The level of support for marketing and distribution.

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 



We have no control over most of these factors. Furthermore, it may be difficult for us, to the extent that competitors are able to commercialize competing products before our vaccine candidates obtain regulatory approval, to develop a market for a vaccine because doctors, patients or third-party payors may have become accustomed to using a competing, existing product or for other reasons, even though our drug may be more effective or has other advantages.




 


If any of the vaccines we develop fail to achieve market acceptance in the future, we may not be able to generate significant revenue, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth opportunities.


 


The use of DanDrit’s drugs or vaccine candidates may lead to unforeseen side effects. If any of our drugs or vaccine candidates is deemed to be unsafe, our business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth opportunities could be materially adversely affected.


 


All drugs are associated with a risk of allergic, immunologic genes or hyper-sensitivities. We test for allergic and immunological genes actions in preclinical and clinical studies, but if any of our products cause other allergic or immunological reactions than those considered acceptable by patients, doctors or regulatory authorities, we or our collaborators may be required to conduct additional clinical trials that will cause delays and increase costs for the development of a product, or development may have to be terminated or suspended on the grounds that participants will be exposed to unacceptable health risks.


 


Even in cases where pre-clinical or clinical studies have been successful, or received regulatory approval, a product can later prove to be unsafe. The incidence of adverse events may make it necessary for us and for our collaborators to carry out further investigations and studies. If a product is determined to be unsafe, we and our collaborators can be fined or risk having regulatory approvals suspended or withdrawn, be required to cease selling activities relating to the product, be required to recall the product, be subject to seizure of products, or be exposed to civil or criminal prosecution. Any of these results could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth opportunities.


 


Third party reimbursement and reform measures on health care could have a material adverse effect on the commercial success of DanDrit’s vaccine candidates.


 



Market acceptance of DanDrit’s vaccine candidates depends in part on the extent to which the public and private health insurance and other third-party payors will subsidize DanDrit’s drugs.




 


Governments, insurance companies and health organizations are increasingly seeking to reduce healthcare costs by limiting coverage, price and reimbursement levels of new vaccine products as well as in some cases rejecting coverage. Reimbursement practices vary significantly from country to country, and some countries require that products undergo a lengthy review by the authorities before they meet the public support requirements.



 


In the United States, in Canada and in many other countries, pricing and/or profitability of some or all prescription pharmaceuticals and biopharmaceuticals are subject to varying degrees of government control. Healthcare reform and controls on healthcare spending may limit the price we charge for any products and the amounts thereof that we can sell. In particular, in the United States, the federal government and private insurers have changed and have considered ways to change, the manner in which healthcare services are provided. In March 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, or collectively, PPACA, became law in the United States. PPACA substantially changes the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and private insurers and significantly affects the healthcare industry. The provisions of PPACA of importance to our product candidates include the following:


 






	  	
●

	
an annual, nondeductible fee on any entity that manufactures or imports specified branded prescription drugs and biologic agents, apportioned among these entities according to their market share in certain government healthcare programs;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
an increase in the statutory minimum rebates a manufacturer must pay under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program, to 23.1% and 13.0% of the average manufacturer price for most branded and generic drugs, respectively;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
expansion of healthcare fraud and abuse laws, including the False Claims Act and the Anti-Kickback Statute, new government investigative powers, and enhanced penalties for noncompliance;

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 




	  	
●

	
a new Medicare Part D coverage gap discount program, in which manufacturers must agree to offer 50% point-of-sale discounts off negotiated prices of applicable brand drugs to eligible beneficiaries during their coverage gap period, as a condition for a manufacturer’s outpatient drugs to be covered under Medicare Part D;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
extension of a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability to covered drugs dispensed to individuals who are enrolled in Medicaid managed care organizations;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
expansion of eligibility criteria for Medicaid programs by, among other things, allowing states to offer Medicaid coverage to additional individuals and by adding new mandatory eligibility categories for certain individuals with income at or below 133% of the federal poverty level beginning in 2014, thereby potentially increasing a manufacturer’s Medicaid rebate liability;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
expansion of the entities eligible for discounts under the Public Health Service pharmaceutical pricing program;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
new requirements under the federal Open Payments program and its implementing regulations;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
a new requirement to annually report drug samples that manufacturers and distributors provide to physicians; and


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
a new Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in, and conduct comparative clinical effectiveness research, along with funding for such research.










 


In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since PPACA was enacted. These changes include aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of up to 2% per fiscal year, which went into effect on April 1, 2013. In January 2013, President Obama signed into law the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which, among other things, further reduced Medicare payments to several types of providers and increased the statute of limitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years. These new laws may result in additional reductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, which could have a material adverse effect on our customers and accordingly, our financial operations.


 




We anticipate that PPACA, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result in more rigorous coverage criteria and additional downward pressure on the reimbursement we may receive for any approved product. Moreover, payment methodologies may be subject to changes in healthcare legislation and regulatory initiatives. For example, the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 requires the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, or CMS, to reduce the Medicare clinical laboratory fee schedule by 2% in 2013, which in turn will serve as a base for 2014 and subsequent years. CMS also recently proposed to re-examine payment amounts for tests reimbursed under the Medicare clinical laboratory fee schedule due to changes in technology and, in addition, proposed to bundle the Medicare payments for certain laboratory tests ordered while a patient received services in a hospital outpatient setting. Such changes went into effect January 1, 2014. Levels of reimbursement may be impacted by current and future legislation, regulation or reimbursement policies of third-party payors in a manner that may harm the demand and reimbursement available for our products, which in turn, could harm our future product pricing and sales. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare and other government programs may result in a similar reduction in payments from private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generate revenue, attain profitability or commercialize our products.


 


There may be delays or difficulties in the recruitment and monitoring of patients in clinical trials. Any such delays could have a material adverse effect on DanDrit’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth opportunities.


 



All clinical development of new vaccine candidates depends on the recruitment of volunteer suitable patients for clinical trials. While DanDrit has not experience difficulties in recruiting patients to date, the ability to recruit patients depends on certain factors, including the prevalence of the disease in the population and it may be more difficult to find a sufficient number of patients to participate in clinical trials for drugs being developed for a disease that is common among the general population. Even if a disease is frequent among the population, there may be a number of other companies developing drugs that target the same disease who may eventually have more success in recruiting among the total group of potential patients for their clinical studies. In addition, trials in which patients may receive a placebo are typically more difficult to populate. DanDrit’s next clinical trial will include a comparative placebo arm. While DanDrit currently plans to address these potential difficulties, potentially through 2:1 randomization that increases a patient’s potential to receive active treatment vs. a placebo, if we or our collaborators find it difficult to recruit a sufficient number of patients to participate in clinical trials for one of its vaccine candidates DanDrit and/or its collaborators may have to postpone or discontinue ongoing clinical trials. Delays may also result in increased costs for clinical studies and may affect the implementation of studies required for a vaccine candidate’s approval. Delay or complete termination of a clinical trial program could have a material adverse effect on DanDrit’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth opportunities.

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 


DanDrit may not be able to make, or cause others to conduct, animal testing in the future. This could have a material adverse effect on our research and development work.


 


Research into dendritic cell vaccines does not generally involve animals. But, certain aspects of DanDrit’s biotechnology research and development may be carried out on animals. Changes to laws and regulations, recognized clinical procedures, or experimental protocols may have a negative impact on this research and development. Pressure from society, which may lead to restrictions on the use of animals or result in actions against DanDrit, its affiliates or its clinical research organizations from groups of people or individuals who are against animal testing may also have a material adverse effect on research and development work.


 


DanDrit faces extensive competition. If our vaccine candidates cannot compete successfully, our business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth opportunities could be materially, adversely affected.


 


There is extensive competition in the biopharmaceutical industry and the technology is developing rapidly. DanDrit is developing a vaccine for the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer, where competing products may be introduced. If these newly developed products are more efficient, cheaper, more patient-friendly, safer, or better placed than DanDrit’s vaccine candidates, or if DanDrit’s competitors develop drugs that reduce or eliminate the need for DanDrit’s vaccine candidates, such competition could reduce or eliminate DanDrit’s commercial opportunities. Many of DanDrit’s competitors have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than DanDrit and significantly more experience than DanDrit with preclinical and clinical research and development and in obtaining regulatory approval of pharmaceutical products.


 


DanDrit’s drugs may face competition as a result of many factors, including the route of administration (e.g. oral administration vs. injection), the availability and cost of production, efficiency of DanDrit’s partners’ marketing and sales efforts as well as the price of DanDrit’s products. DanDrit has limited or no previous experience in these areas. DanDrit’s inability to compete effectively would have a material adverse effect on DanDrit’s business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth opportunities.


 


DanDrit is likely to be exposed to product liability claims. If product liability lawsuits are successfully brought against us, our insurance may be inadequate. If a judgment were to exceed our insurance coverage, our business could be materially, adversely affected.


 


DanDrit will be exposed, by virtue of the nature of its business, to the risk of potential product liability claims, which is a natural part of the clinical development, manufacture and marketing of drugs. Even in cases where DanDrit has granted licenses to third parties to manufacture and sell its products, there can be no assurance that DanDrit will not be included in any product liability claims relating to these medicines, or claims by third parties, including DanDrit’s partners, for indemnity or other compensation from DanDrit in connection with any such claims.


 


We plan to obtain product liability insurance coverage once our clinical trials commence. However, our insurance coverage may not be sufficient to reimburse us for any expenses or losses we may suffer. Moreover, insurance coverage is becoming increasingly expensive, and, in the future, we may not be able to maintain insurance coverage at a reasonable cost or in sufficient amounts to protect us against losses due to liability. If and when we obtain marketing approval for our product candidates, we intend to expand our insurance coverage to include the sale of commercial products; however, we may be unable to obtain this product liability insurance on commercially reasonable terms. On occasion, large judgments have been awarded in class action lawsuits based on drugs that had unanticipated side effects. The cost of any product liability litigation or other proceedings, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. A successful product liability claim or series of claims brought against us could cause our share price to decline (assuming a trading market in our common stock is established) and, if judgments exceed our insurance coverage, could decrease our cash and adversely affect our business.


 



We will need substantial additional funds to support our operations, and such funding may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all, which would force us to terminate, delay, reduce or suspend our operations, research and development programs and other commercialization efforts.


 




The completion of the development and the potential commercialization of MCV and any future product candidates, should they receive approval, will require substantial funds. As of December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014, we had approximately $96,262 and $478,441 in cash and cash equivalents, respectively. We project that cash will be derived from revenues received from eight patients each month beginning November 1, 2014 in connection with the MyTomorrows program and committed financing secured by Paseco ApS for DKK 2,000,000 (the “Paseco Note”) or approximately $369,920, if necessary. This note accrues annual interest at 5% per annum and is due and payable on February 1, 2015. Our projected revenues and cash from financing activities for the next 12 months are approximately $980,000 and $1,300,000, respectively, and our projected expenses are approximately $1,700,000. On April 29, 2014, DanDrit Denmark and Paseco amended the Paseco Note to extend the term to February 1, 2015, with a further extension permitted at the Company’s option for an additional year with an increase in the interest rate to 7.00% per annum. We believe that the anticipated revenues and financing described above will supply us with sufficient cash and cash equivalents to sustain our operations for the next 12 months based on our existing business plan. Our future financing requirements will depend on many factors, some of which are beyond our control, including the following:








 




	  	
●

	
the rate of progress and cost of our clinical studies;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
the timing of, and costs involved in, seeking and obtaining approvals from the FDA and other regulatory authorities;

●

	
the costs of attracting, hiring and retaining qualified personnel.









 



Other than the Paseco Note, we do not have any committed external source of funds or other support for our operational or development efforts. Until we can generate a sufficient amount of product revenue to finance our cash requirements, which we may never do, we expect to finance future cash needs through a combination of public or private equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations, strategic alliances, licensing arrangements and other marketing and distribution arrangements. Additional financing may not be available to us when we need it or it may not be available on favorable terms. If we raise additional capital through marketing and distribution arrangements or other collaborations, strategic alliances or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish certain valuable rights to MCV or potential future product candidates, technologies, future revenue streams or research programs, or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we raise additional capital through public or private equity offerings, the ownership interest of our existing stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect our stockholders’ rights.


 


If we raise additional capital through debt financing, we may be subject to covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing when needed, we may have to delay, reduce the scope of, or suspend one or more of our clinical studies or research and development programs or our commercialization efforts.




 


Raising capital in the future could cause dilution to our existing shareholders, and may restrict our operations or require us to relinquish rights.


 


In the future, we may seek additional capital through a combination of private and public equity offerings, debt financings and collaborations and strategic and licensing arrangements. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, your ownership interest will be diluted, and the terms may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a shareholder. Debt financing, if available, would result in increased fixed payment obligations and may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions such as incurring debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise additional funds through collaboration, strategic alliance and licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams or product candidates, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us.


 



We depend on intellectual property and the failure to protect our intellectual property could adversely affect our future growth and success. This would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.




 


We rely on patent, trademark and copyright law, trade secret protection, and confidentiality and other agreements with employees, customers, collaborators and others to protect our intellectual property. However, some of our intellectual property is not covered by any patent or patent application, and, despite precautions, it may be possible for third parties to obtain and use our intellectual property without authorization.


 


We do not know whether any patents will be issued from pending or future patent applications or whether the scope of the issued patents is sufficiently broad to protect our technologies or processes. The patent position of biotechnology companies is generally uncertain because it involves complex legal and factual considerations. The standards applied by the United States Patent and Trademark Office and foreign patent offices in granting patents are not always applied uniformly or predictably. For example, there is no uniform worldwide policy regarding patentable subject matter or the scope of claims allowable in biotechnology and pharmaceutical patents. Consequently, patents may not issue from our pending patent applications. As such, we do not know the degree of future protection that we will have on our proprietary products and technology.


 


We endeavor to aggressively protect our technologies through patents covering compositions of matter, drug targets and aspects of mechanism of action, drug product formulation, methods of use and methods of manufacture, and trade secrets. We have filed patent applications and in-licensed others with respect to our technology both domestically and internationally and anticipate filing multiple patent applications, in the future. While we believe that we will be able to secure adequate and enforceable patent protection for our products and technologies, there is no guarantee that patent protection can be obtained, and even if it is obtained that such patent protection will ultimately be deemed valid, sufficiently enforceable, sufficient to preclude competition or not infringe upon the rights of other parties. Furthermore, the laws of some foreign countries may not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States and Denmark.

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 


The patents protecting our proprietary technologies expire after a period of time. Currently, our patents have expiration dates ranging from 2021 through 2024. Although we have attempted to incorporate technology from our core patents into specific patented product applications, product designs and packaging to extend the lives of our patents, this approach may not be successful in protecting our proprietary technology. If we are not successful in protecting our proprietary technology, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.


 


We may not be successful in protecting our proprietary rights. Any infringement upon our intellectual property rights could have an adverse effect on our ability to develop our products and sell them commercially.


 


Issued patents covering one or more of our product candidates could be found invalid or unenforceable if challenged in court. If that were to happen, our business would be adversely impacted.


 


If we were to initiate legal proceedings against a third party to enforce a patent covering one of our product candidates, the defendant could counterclaim that our patent is invalid and/or unenforceable. In patent litigation in the United States, defendant counterclaims alleging invalidity and/or unenforceability are commonplace. Grounds for a validity challenge could be an alleged failure to meet any of several statutory requirements, for example, lack of novelty, obviousness or non-enablement. Grounds for an unenforceability assertion could be an allegation that someone connected with prosecution of the patent withheld relevant information from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or made a misleading statement, during prosecution. The outcome following legal assertions of invalidity and unenforceability during patent litigation is unpredictable. With respect to the validity question, for example, we cannot be certain that there is no invalidating prior art, of which we and the patent examiner were unaware during prosecution. If a defendant were to prevail on a legal assertion of invalidity and/or unenforceability, we would lose at least part, and perhaps all, of the patent protection on one or more of our product candidates or certain aspects of our platform technology. Such a loss of patent protection could have a material adverse impact on our business.


 


We may infringe on the intellectual property rights of others, which may prevent or delay our product development efforts and stop us from commercializing or increase the costs of commercializing our products.


 


Our commercial success depends significantly on our ability to operate without infringing the patents and other intellectual property rights of third parties. For example, there could be issued patents of which we are not aware that our products infringe. There also could be patents that we believe we do not infringe, but that we may ultimately be found to have infringed. Moreover, patent applications are in some cases maintained in secrecy until patents are issued. The publication of discoveries in the scientific or patent literature frequently occurs substantially later than the date on which the underlying discoveries were made and patent applications were filed. Because patents can take many years to issue, there may be currently pending applications of which we are unaware that may later result in issued patents that our products infringe. For example, pending applications may exist that provide support or can be amended to provide support for a claim that results in an issued patent that our product infringes.


 


Third parties may assert that we are employing their proprietary technology without authorization. If a court held that any third-party patents are valid, enforceable and cover our products or their use, the holders of any of these patents may be able to block our ability to commercialize our products unless we obtained a license under the applicable patents, or until the patents expire. We may not be able to enter into licensing arrangements or make other arrangements at a reasonable cost or on reasonable terms. Any inability to secure licenses or alternative technology could result in delays in the introduction of our products or lead to prohibition of the manufacture or sale of products by us.


 


Unfavorable outcomes in intellectual property litigation could limit our research and development activities and/or our ability to commercialize certain products.


 


If third parties successfully assert intellectual property rights against us, we might be barred from using certain aspects of our technology, or barred from developing and commercializing certain products. Prohibitions against using certain technologies, or prohibitions against commercializing certain products, could be imposed by a court or by a settlement agreement between us and a plaintiff. In addition, if we are unsuccessful in defending against allegations of patent infringement or misappropriation of trade secrets, we may be forced to pay substantial damage awards to the plaintiff. There is inevitable uncertainty in any litigation, including intellectual property litigation. There can be no assurance that we would prevail in any intellectual property litigation, even if the case against us is weak or flawed. If litigation leads to an outcome unfavorable to us, we may be required to obtain a license from the patent owner, in order to continue our research and development programs or to market our product(s). It is possible that the necessary license will not be available to us on commercially acceptable terms, or at all. This could limit our research and development activities, our ability to commercialize certain products, or both.

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 


Most of our competitors are larger than we are and have substantially greater resources. They are, therefore, likely to be able to sustain the costs of complex patent litigation longer than we could. In addition, the uncertainties associated with litigation could have a material adverse effect on our ability to raise the funds necessary to continue our clinical trials, continue our internal research programs, in-license needed technology, or enter into strategic partnerships that would help us bring our product candidates to market.


 


In addition, any future patent litigation, interference or other administrative proceedings will result in additional expense and distraction of our personnel. An adverse outcome in such litigation or proceedings may expose us or any future collaborators to loss of our proprietary position, expose us to significant liabilities, or require us to seek licenses that may not be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.


 


Changes in U.S. patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our products.


 


As is the case with other pharmaceutical companies, our success is heavily dependent on intellectual property, particularly patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents in the biopharmaceutical industry involves both technological and legal complexity. Therefore, obtaining and enforcing pharmaceutical patents is costly, time-consuming and inherently uncertain. In addition, the United States has recently enacted and is currently implementing wide-ranging patent reform legislation. The United States Supreme Court has ruled on several patent cases in recent years, either narrowing the scope of patent protection available in certain circumstances or weakening the rights of patent owners in certain situations. In addition to increasing uncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to the value of patents, once obtained. Depending on decisions by the U.S. Congress, the federal courts, and the U.S. PTO, the laws and regulations governing patents could change in unpredictable ways that would weaken our ability to obtain new patents or to enforce our existing patents and patents that we might obtain in the future.


 


Confidentiality agreements with employees and third parties may not prevent unauthorized disclosure of trade secrets and other proprietary information.


 


In addition to patents, we rely on other methods to protect our trade secrets, technical know-how, and proprietary information. In the course of our research and development activities and our business activities, we often rely on confidentiality agreements to protect our proprietary information. Such confidentiality agreements are used, for example, when we talk to vendors of laboratory or clinical development services or potential collaborators. We take steps to protect our proprietary information, and our confidentiality agreements are carefully drafted to protect our proprietary interests. Nevertheless, there can be no guarantee that an employee or an outside party will not make an unauthorized disclosure of our proprietary confidential information. This might happen intentionally or inadvertently. It is possible that a competitor will make use of such information in spite of any legal action we might take against persons making such unauthorized disclosures.


 


Trade secrets are difficult to protect. Although we use reasonable efforts to protect our trade secrets, our employees, consultants, contractors, or outside collaborators might intentionally or inadvertently disclose our trade secret information to competitors. Enforcing a claim that a third party illegally obtained and is using any of our trade secrets is expensive and time consuming, and the outcome is unpredictable. In addition, courts outside the United States sometimes are less willing than U.S. courts to protect trade secrets. Moreover, our competitors may independently develop equivalent knowledge, methods and know-how.


 


Foreign currency fluctuations could adversely impact financial performance.


 


Our reporting currency is the United States dollar. Because of our activities in Denmark, the United Kingdom and continental Europe, we are exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency rates. We may manage the risk to such exposure by entering into foreign currency futures and option contracts. Foreign currency fluctuations may have a significant effect on our operations in the future.

 Assuming that our vaccine candidates receive regulatory approval and we begin sales of these products, our results may fluctuate due to certain regulatory, marketing and competitive factors over which we have little or no control.


 


Assuming that our vaccine candidates receive regulatory approval and we begin the sale of these products, the factors listed below, some of which we cannot control, may cause our revenue and results of operations to fluctuate significantly:


 




	  	
●

	
Actions taken by regulatory bodies relating to the verification, registration or health effects of our products.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
The extent to which existing and newly developed products obtain market acceptance.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
The timing and size of customer purchases.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Customer concerns about the stability of our business, which could cause them to seek alternatives to our solutions and products; and


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Increases in raw material costs.









 


We will incur significant costs as a result of operating as a public company, and our management may be required to devote substantial time to compliance initiatives.


 


As a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses which we estimate to be in excess of $300,000 annually. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as rules subsequently implemented by the SEC, have imposed various requirements on public companies, including requiring establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls as well as mandating certain corporate governance practices. Our management and other personnel will devote a substantial amount of time and financial resources to these compliance initiatives.


 


 If we fail to staff our accounting and finance function adequately, or maintain internal control systems adequate to meet the demands that are placed upon us as a public company, we may be unable to report our financial results accurately or in a timely manner and our business and stock price, assuming that a market for our stock develops, may suffer. The costs of being a public company, as well as diversion of management’s time and attention, may have a material adverse effect on our future business, financial condition and results of operations.


 


A significant portion of our assets and the majority of our officers and directors are located outside of the United States and therefore it may be difficult for an investor to enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against us or such officers and directors.


 


A significant portion of our assets are located outside of the United States. In addition, the majority of our officers and directors are nationals and/or residents of countries other than the United States, and all or a substantial portion of such persons’ assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for an investor to effect service of process or enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against us or such officers or directors, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of other jurisdictions would recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against us or our directors and officers predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof, or be competent to hear original actions brought in other jurisdictions against us, or such officers and directors predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof.


 


RISKS RELATED TO OWNERSHIP OF OUR COMMON STOCK


 


There is currently no trading market for our common stock and we cannot guarantee you that a trading market will develop. You may be unable to sell your shares of our common stock if you need to liquidate your investment.


 


While our class of common stock is registered under the Exchange Act and we are a full SEC “reporting company,” our individual shares of common stock are not currently registered under the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, and none of such shares currently may publicly trade through exemptions from such registration. Accordingly there is no public trading market for our common stock. Further, we cannot guarantee you that a public trading market will develop in the foreseeable future. Currently, outstanding shares of our common stock cannot be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise transferred unless registered pursuant to, or exempt from registration under, the Securities Act and any other applicable federal or state securities laws or regulations. Compliance with the criteria for securing exemptions under federal securities laws and the securities laws of the various states is extremely complex. If you purchase shares of our common stock, there may be no market in which to sell them if you need to liquidate your investment in the future or the transfer or sale you wish to make may not comply with federal or state securities laws and would, therefore, be prohibited.

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 


If a public market for our common stock develops, it may be volatile. This may affect the ability of our investors to sell their shares as well as the price at which they sell their shares.


 


If a market for our common stock develops, the market price for shares of our common stock may be significantly affected by factors such as variations in quarterly and yearly operating results, general trends in the biotechnology industry, and changes in state or federal regulations affecting us and our industry.


 


Furthermore, in recent years the stock market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the affected companies. Such broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock, if a market for it develops.


 


As an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act, we are permitted to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements.


 


We qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act. As a result, we are permitted to and may rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements. For so long as we are an emerging growth company, we will not be required to:


 




	  	
●

	
have an auditor report on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (i.e., an auditor discussion and analysis);


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
submit certain executive compensation matters to shareholder advisory votes, such as “say-on-pay”, “say-on-frequency” and “say-on-golden parachute;” and


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the Chief Executive’s compensation to median employee compensation.









 


In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We are not choosing to “opt out” of this provision. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that our decision to opt out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards is irrevocable. As a result of our election, not to “opt out” of Section 107, DanDrit’s financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.


 


We will remain an “emerging growth company” until the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of our first sale of common equity securities pursuant to an effective registration under the Securities Act, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which would occur if the market value of our ordinary shares that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.


 


Until such time, however, we cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.


 


We have never paid dividends on our common stock.


 


We have never paid dividends on our common stock and do not presently intend to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. We anticipate that any funds available for payment of dividends will be re-invested into the Company to further its business strategy. Because we do not anticipate paying dividends in the future, the only opportunity for our stockholders to realize the creation of value in our common stock will likely be through a sale of those shares.

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 


The offering is being made on a best efforts basis with no minimum amount of shares required to be sold for the offering to proceed. If we are unable to raise the funds we need to fully implement our business plan, investors who participate in the offering may lose their entire investment.


 


In order to fully implement our business plan, we must raise $12,000,000 from this offering. However, our offering is being made on a best efforts basis with no minimum amount of shares required to be sold for the offering to proceed. If we raise only a nominal amount of proceeds we would likely be unable to implement our business plan, we may have to suspend or cease operations and investors who participate in this offering may lose their entire investments.


 


We arbitrarily determined the price of the common stock we are offering.


 


We determined the offering price of the common stock we are offering. The offering price does not bear any direct relationship to the value of our physical assets, the book value of our common stock, or any other generally accepted criteria of valuation. The price and other terms were based on a number of factors including, without limitation, estimates of our business potential and earnings prospects and the consideration of such potential earnings in relation to market valuations of comparable companies. The offering price is not an indication of the actual value of our common stock at the time of this offering.


 


Furthermore, if a market for our common stock develops, the price of our common stock following this offering may be highly volatile as the securities of emerging businesses often are. Factors such as our financial results and the introduction of new products by us or by our competitors, and various factors affecting the biotechnology industry generally, may have a significant impact on the market price of our securities. Additionally, in recent years, the stock market has experienced a high level of price and volume volatility and market prices for the securities of many companies, particularly of small and emerging growth companies, the common stock of which trade in the over-the-counter market, have experienced wide price fluctuations which have not necessarily been related to the operating performance of these companies.


 



The Company has not received any commitments to purchase the common stock under the Public Offering Prospectus. There is no minimum offering amount.




 



The Company will use its best efforts to sell all of the common stock offered under the Public Offering Prospectus. These sales may be made either directly by the Company, through its officers and directors, or with the assistance of the Placement Agents. No underwriter has been engaged in connection with the offering or performed any due diligence activities which would otherwise confirm the accuracy of our disclosures in the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part and our price of the offered common stock. None of the Company, the Placement Agents, or any other person, has made any commitment to purchase any of the shares offered hereby. Consequently, there can be no assurance that any of the shares will be sold. There is no minimum offering amount required for us to accept subscriptions for our Common Stock. To the extent that the net proceeds raised by the Company are substantially less than the maximum offering amount, the Company's opportunities would be severely diminished. In the event that an alternate source of financing is not obtained in a timely manner, those investors who participate in this offering risk the loss of their entire investments. In the event that we file a post-effective amendment to increase the offering amount pursuant to Rule 462(b) of the Securities Act, we plan to allocate the extra funds in strengthening our Phase II/III clinical trial with a larger sample size and in targeting patients with stage III colorectal cancer rather than metastatic (stage IV) colorectal cancer patients. See "Use of Proceeds," "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and "Plan of Distribution."


 










We have the right to issue shares of preferred stock. If we were to issue preferred stock, it is likely to have rights, preferences and privileges that may adversely affect the common stock.


 


We are authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, with such rights, preferences and privileges as may be determined from time-to-time by our board of directors. No preferred stock is currently issued and outstanding. Our board of directors is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock in one or more series, and to fix for any series the dividend rights, dissolution or liquidation preferences, redemption prices, conversion rights, voting rights, and other rights, preferences and privileges for the preferred stock. No shares of preferred stock are presently issued and outstanding and we have no immediate plans to issue shares of preferred stock. The issuance of shares of preferred stock, depending on the rights, preferences and privileges attributable to the preferred stock, could adversely reduce the voting rights and powers of the common stock and the portion of the Company’s assets allocated for distribution to common stockholders in a liquidation event, and could also result in dilution in the book value per share of the common stock being offered. The preferred stock could also be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method for raising additional capital or discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company, to the detriment of the investors in the common stock being offered. We cannot assure you that the Company will not, under certain circumstances, issue shares of its preferred stock.


 


We may use the net proceeds from this offering in ways which differ from our estimates and with which you may not agree.


 


The discussion titled “Use of Proceeds”, which appears elsewhere in this prospectus, sets forth the way in which we expect to use the net proceeds of this offering. The discussion represents our estimates based upon our current plans, assumptions regarding industry and general economic conditions, and our anticipated future revenues and expenditures. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures will depend on numerous factors, including market conditions, cash generated by our operations, business developments and the rate of our growth. We may find it necessary or advisable to use portions of the proceeds from this offering for purposes other than those stated in the Use of Proceeds discussion. Circumstances that may give rise to a change in the use of proceeds and the alternate purposes for which the proceeds may be used are also discussed in the section of this prospectus titled “Use of Proceeds”. You will not have an opportunity to evaluate the economic, financial or other information on which we base our decisions on how to use our proceeds. As a result, you and other shareholders may not agree with the decisions made by our management relating to the way in which the proceeds from this offering are used. See the discussion titled “Use of Proceeds” for additional information.

You will experience immediate dilution in the book value per share of the common stock you purchase.


 




Because the price per share of our common stock being offered is substantially higher than the book value per share of our common stock, you will experience substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of the common stock you purchase in this offering. Based on an assumed offering price of $5.00 per share, if you purchase shares of common stock in this offering, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution of $3.87 per share in the net tangible book value of the common stock at March 31, 2014. See the section titled “Dilution” below for a more detailed discussion of the dilution you will incur if you purchase common stock in this offering.


 






Penny stock regulations may impose certain restrictions on the marketability of our securities.


 


The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5 per share, is not listed on a national exchange and fails to meet other specific criteria, subject to certain exceptions. We anticipate that our common stock, when trading commences, will be subject to these regulations which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000, excluding the net value of the person’s primary residence, or annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with the investor’s spouse). For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a “penny stock”, unless exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a risk disclosure document mandated by the SEC relating to the “penny stock” market. The broker-dealer must also disclose the commission payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the “penny stock” held in the account and information on the limited market in “penny stocks”. Consequently, if and when our common stock becomes publicly traded, the “penny stock” rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and may negatively affect the ability of purchasers of our shares of common stock to sell such securities.


 


A significant portion of our total outstanding shares of common stock is restricted from immediate resale but may be sold into the market in the near future. This could cause the market price of our common stock to drop significantly, even if our business is doing well.


 



Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market, including shares issuable upon the effectiveness of this registration statement or upon the expiration of any statutory holding period under Rule 144, or existing lock-up agreements could occur in the future. These sales, or the perception in the market that the holders of a large number of shares of common stock intend to sell shares, could reduce the market price of our common stock. Our directors, executive officers and  certain shareholders, including those shareholders that were issued common stock in the Share Exchange, and the selling shareholders described herein are subject to a lock-up agreement pursuant to which these persons have agreed, subject to specified exceptions, not to sell, transfer, dispose of, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, without the written consent of Sunrise Securities Corp., one of the Placement Agents, any shares of our common stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of our common stock for a period of 180 days beginning as of the filing date of the  last pre-effective amendment to this prospectus. Once these lock-up provisions expire, and provided that one year has passed following the date the company filed Form 10 information with the SEC, may be sold in the public market pursuant to Rule 144, which could cause the market price of our common stock to drop significantly.

DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS


 


This prospectus contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements give our current expectations or forecasts of future events.

USE OF PROCEEDS


 




Assuming an initial public offering price of $5.00 per share, after deducting commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, we estimate that we will receive net proceeds up to $10,785,464 from the sale of 2,400,000 shares of our common stock (100% of the offering), $8,024,464 from the sale of 1,800,000 shares of our common stock (75% of the offering), $5,265,464 from the sale of 1,200,000 shares of our common stock (50% of the offering) and $2,505,464 from the sale of 600,000 shares of our common stock (25% of the offering).


 


We intend to use the proceeds from this offering to conduct the Phase IIb/III clinical trial with MCV and pay $526,689 in outstanding debt received from Sune Holding ApS, a shareholder of DanDrit, which accrues interest at the rate of 5% per annum and is due upon the earlier of 14 days following the closing of this offering or February 1, 2015 (the “Sune Loan”). All remaining proceeds will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. In the event that we receive maximum proceeds under the offering, we anticipate that we will be able to (i) complete the first step of our Phase II/III clinical trial in metastatic colorectal cancer, (ii) refine the design of the second step (Phase III trial) and (iii) initiate a collaboration agreement with a pharmaceutical partner. If we receive 75% of the maximum proceeds of the offering, we anticipate that we will be able to (i) provide comparative randomized confirmation of efficacy on a large scale that may trigger a partnership with a pharmaceutical company and (ii) pursue the Patient Name Use program with our partner MyTomorrows. If we receive 50% of the maximum proceeds of the offering, we anticipate that we will be able to (i) provide comparative randomized confirmation of efficacy on a smaller scale with a lower hazard ratio (HR) (a ratio used in time to event analysis) that may still trigger a less attractive partnership with a pharmaceutical company and (ii) pursue the Patient Name Use program with our partner MyTomorrows. HR is the hazard of an event in the studied arm divided by the hazard of the same event in the control arm. In our context the event is survival. An HR of 1 means that survival will be the same in both arms. An HR of 0.5 means that at a determined time, half as many patients in the vaccine group will have survived proportionally to the placebo control group. If we receive 25% of the maximum proceeds of the offering, we anticipate that we will be able to conduct a small non-comparative trial that allow us to pursue the patient Name Use Program with our partner MyTomorrows.


 


If we are unable to raise net proceeds equal to at least $10,700,000, we intend to first apply any proceeds raised towards repayment of the Sune Loan and the development and marketing of our products and the engineering, development and testing of vaccines. However, to the extent that we are unable to raise a sufficient amount of proceeds in this offering, we may not be able to achieve all our business objectives in a timely manner.


 






In the event that we file a post-effective amendment to increase the offering amount pursuant to Rule 462(b) of the Securities Act, we plan to allocate the extra funds in strengthening our Phase II/III clinical trial with a larger sample size and in targeting patients with stage III colorectal cancer rather than metastatic (stage IV) colorectal cancer patients.


 


Pending any ultimate use of any portion of the proceeds from this offering, we intend to invest the proceeds in a variety of capital preservation investments, including short-term, interest-bearing instruments such as United States government securities and municipal bonds.


 



The anticipated use of proceeds for the offering funds based on assumed amounts of 100%, 75%, 50% and 25% of total offering is summarized below.

The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures will depend on numerous factors, including market conditions, results from our research and development efforts, business developments and opportunities and the rate of our growth, sales and marketing activities and competition. Accordingly, our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds, and investors will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding the application of the proceeds from this offering. We may find it necessary or advisable to use portions of the proceeds from this offering for other purposes. Circumstances that may give rise to a change in the use of proceeds and the alternate purposes for which the proceeds may be used include:


 




	  	
●

	
the existence of unforeseen or other opportunities or the need to take advantage of changes in the timing of our existing activities;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
the need or desire on our part to accelerate, increase, reduce, change or eliminate one or more existing initiatives due to, among other things, changing market conditions and competitive developments or interim results of research and development efforts;

DILUTION


 


Purchasers of the shares of our common stock offered by this prospectus will suffer immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value per share of our common stock. Our net tangible book value (unaudited) as of March 31, 2014, was a deficit of approximately $(2,486,868), or $(0.32) per share. Net tangible book value per share is calculated by subtracting our total liabilities from our total tangible assets, which is total assets less intangible assets, and dividing this amount by the number of shares of common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2014.





 


Dilution in net tangible book value per share represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers in this offering and the as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after this offering.




 





The shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of our outstanding warrants and the exercise price in respect thereof are subject to adjustment in certain circumstances.













 


To the extent that any options or warrants are exercised, new options are issued, any new stock option or stock incentive plans are adopted or we otherwise issue additional shares of common stock in the future, there will be further dilution to investors in this offering.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF


FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


 


The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. See “Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these statements. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those discussed in our forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus.


 


Overview


 



We are a biotechnology company committed to developing what we believe could be the world’s first vaccine against colorectal cancer. For more than a decade, we have developed and patented compounds successfully used in initial clinical trials in Europe and Asia including: (i) MelCancerVacTM (MCV) for treatment of cancer (one phase I/II trial in Denmark and two phase II trials in Denmark and Singapore), (ii) Tolerogenic dendritic cell (TDC) (pre-clinical stage in Denmark) and (iii) Melvaccine (MV) a melanoma cell lysate used as stand-alone vaccine (pre-clinical state in Denmark). We expect to continue our clinical development program in the United States, Europe and Asia. Springing from academic roots in the Danish Cancer Society, we have built upon our scientific and medical skills to advance a number of candidate therapies, targeted initially at non-small-cell-lung-cancer (NSCLC) and colorectal-cancer (CRC). In 2001, MCV was developed as a result of the combined efforts and research of DanDrit researchers and employees. On September 22, 2008, MCV was authorized by the Singapore government for named patient compassionate use for CRC. Three single-arm Phase II clinical trials in cancer have been conducted where DanDrit’s dendritic cell vaccine, MCV demonstrated potential efficacy. The three clinical trials generated data indicating prospects in a larger and different clinical setting. More specifically, this efficacy data needed to be confirmed in a comparative randomized trial with advanced colorectal cancer patients. Neither the FDA nor any other comparable governmental agency has yet to review MCV. Therefore, any assessment of its safety or efficacy only reflects the opinion of the Company. Furthermore, it does not indicate that MCV will achieve favorable results in any later stage trials or that the FDA or comparable agency will ultimately determine that MCV is safe and effective for purposes of granting marketing approval.


 


As a result, DanDrit Denmark, with the assistance of key opinion leaders in colorectal cancer treatment, has designed a randomized trial with 174 stage IV colorectal cancer patients after surgical resection and chemotherapy. Using an adaptive design clinical study that includes a prospectively planned opportunity for modification of one or more specified aspects of the study design and hypotheses based on analysis of data (usually interim data) from subjects in the study (an “Adaptive Design Clinical Study”), we significantly reduced the cost and duration of a Phase IIb/III study and we believe we can complete the study within three years. Regulatory authorities in the United States and Europe have both published guidance documents on the use and implementation of adaptive design trials. These documents both include description of adaptive trials and include a requirement for prospectively written standard operating procedures and working processes for executing adaptive trials and a recommendation that sponsor companies engage with CROs that have the necessary experience in running such trials.




 


Share Exchange



 



DanDrit was incorporated in Delaware on January 18, 2011 under the name “Putnam Hills Corp.” as a vehicle to pursue a business combination through the acquisition of, or merger with, an operating business. We filed a Registration Statement on Form 10 with the SEC on August 12, 2011.

TABLE OF CONTENTS








 





On February 12, 2014, the Company signed and consummated the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement, by and among DanDrit USA, DanDrit Denmark and N.E. Nielsen, as the representative of the shareholders of DanDrit Denmark, pursuant to which the Company will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding equity securities in DanDrit Denmark in exchange for 6,000,000 of the issued and outstanding shares common stock par value $0.0001 per share of the Company. The Share Exchange was closed on February 12, 2014. In accordance with Section 70 of the Danish Companies Act and the Articles of Association of DanDrit Denmark, the Non-Consenting Shareholders are entitled to receive the 185,053 shares of common stock of DanDrit USA that each such DanDrit Denmark shareholder would have been entitled to receive if such DanDrit Denmark shareholder had consented to the Share Exchange, up to an aggregate of 185,053 shares of common stock of DanDrit USA, reflected as issued and outstanding. As a result of the Share Exchange, the former shareholders of DanDrit Denmark became the controlling shareholders of the Company. The Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse takeover/recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein DanDrit Denmark is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The capital, share price, and earnings per share amount in these consolidated financial statements for the period prior to the reverse merger were restated to reflect the recapitalization in accordance with the exchange ratio established in the merger.


 


Upon the closing of the Share Exchange, DanDrit USA and the its majority shareholder immediately prior to the closing agreed to cancel up to 4,400,000 share of common stock.  In addition, following the closing of the Share Exchange, the wholly owned subsidiary of the company formed solely for the purposes of changing the company’s name, DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc., merged with and into the company and the company adopted the name of its wholly owned subsidiary “DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc.”


 



DanDrit USA will own approximately 100% of the outstanding equity interests of DanDrit Denmark. As a result of the Share Exchange, we changed our management and reconstituted our board of directors. As of the effective time of the Share Exchange, Samir Masri, the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary and sole director of Putnam resigned as the sole officer and director of Putnam and appointed NE Nielsen, Dr. Jacob Rosenberg, Dr. Eric Leire, Aldo Petersen and Robert E. Wolfe as directors of Putnam, and Dr. Eric Leire as Chief Executive Officer and President and Mr. Wolfe as Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary.


 










Recent Developments


 


Negotiation with Etablissement Francais du Sang (EFS) regarding the GeniusVac Technology


 


DanDrit has recently entered into a negotiation with the Etablissement Francais du Sang (EFS) regarding access to their GeniusVac Technology. The GeniusVac technology is an Allogenic irradiated plasmacytoid dendritic cell line. This technology may allow DanDrit to develop a 100% off-the-shelf cancer vaccine.

Cost of Goods Sold


 



Our cost of goods sold was $17,739 and $15,360 during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.




 


Gross Loss


 



Gross loss for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $17,739 compared to gross income of $16,198 for same period in 2013. The increase in gross loss was due to lower sales and higher cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $326,428 and $175,016, respectively. The differences in expenses were primarily due to a total of $156,903 in legal fees for the three months ended March 31, 2014, representing an increase of $151,412, or approximately 87%, compared to $29,042 for the three months ended March 31, 2013; and audit expenses of $36,793, representing an increase of $15,917, or approximately 55%, compared to $20,876 for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources


 




We have historically satisfied our capital and liquidity requirements through funding from our largest shareholders and the issuance of convertible notes, which over time have been converted into shares of our common stock.  On December 16, 2013, DanDrit Denmark issued 681,849 common shares upon the conversion of $5,050,492 in loan and convertible bonds payable and related accrued interest and derivative liabilities.  As of March 31, 2014, we had notes payable to related parties and related accrued interest totaling $1,705,201 consisting of (1) a $187,932 loan payable at the rate of 5% per annum and is payable upon the earlier of 14 days following the closing of the offering or February 1, 2015 (“Loan 1”), (2) a $526,689 loan payable at the rate of 5% per annum due upon the earlier of 14 days following the closing of this offering or February 1, 2015 (“Loan 2”), (3) a $888,880 loan payable to an existing shareholder which accrues interest at the rate of 5% per annum and is due February 1, 2015 and can be extended at the Company’s option for an additional year with an increase in the interest rate to 7.00% (“Loan 3”) and (4) $101,700 in other loans payable on demand. On April 29, 2014, Loan 1, Loan 2 and Loan 3 were amended whereby the terms of the 2014 loans are payable on February 1, 2015 and can be extended at the Company’s option for an additional year with an increase in the interest rate to 7.00%. The Company plans to repay Loan 1 from operations. The Company has an additional funding commitment of approximately $368,868 until February 2015 for the Company to draw upon to support operations.  The Company plans to repay Loan 1 as described in the “Use of Proceeds” section herein.  








 


As of March 31, 2014 the Company had cash of $54,472, cash held in escrow of $423,969 and an accumulated deficit of $(2,186,102) as compared to March 31, 2013, when the Company had $18,794 in cash and cash equivalents, cash held in escrow of $77,468 and an accumulated deficit of $(1,684,170). The change in cash is primarily due to the additional financings obtained by the Company’s subsidiary. The decrease in the working capital is primarily related to the acquisition of DanDrit Biotech A/S on February 12, 2014. At December 31, 2013, we had cash of $18,794, cash held in escrow of $77,468 and working capital deficit of $(1,993,145).

The Company is dependent upon the receipt of capital investment or other financing to fund its ongoing operations. The Company has secured an additional funding commitment of $368,868 through February 2015 from a related party.  In addition, the Company is dependent upon certain related parties to provide continued funding and capital resources. If continued funding and capital resources are unavailable or unavailable at reasonable terms, the Company may not be able to implement its plan of operations.


 


We believe that our cash flow together with currently available funds from our existing lines of credit and other potential sources of funds, such as loans from shareholders, will be sufficient to fund our anticipated working capital needs and capital spending requirements for the next 12 months. The Company projects that revenues and expenses for the next 12 months will be $983,108 and $1,404,187, respectively.  The Company secured financing of $461,877 and $424,927 on February 15, 2014 and March 18, 2014 as amended on April 29, 2014, respectively.  The Company has secured an additional funding commitment until February 2015 of 2,000,000 DKK or approximately $368,868, determined by using the current currency conversion rate.  However, if the additional funding commitment is not funded or if we were to incur any unanticipated expenditures or the positive trend of our operating cash flow does not continue or our shareholders determine not to invest in the Company either in connection with the sale of debt or equity securities, such circumstances could put a substantial burden on our cash resources.


 







We may also need additional funds for possible future strategic acquisitions of businesses, products or technologies complementary to our business. If additional funds are required, we may raise such funds from time to time through public or private sales of equity or debt securities. Financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and our failure to raise capital when needed could materially adversely impact our growth plans and our financial condition and results of operations.


 


Our auditors have prepared the financial statements included with this prospectus in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.  However, since the Company has incurred significant losses and has not yet been successful in establishing profitable operations, our auditors have expressed doubts about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. In this regard, management plans to mitigate this doubt by raising additional funds through debt and/or equity offerings and by substantially increasing sales once approval for the Company’s product is obtained.  There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving profitable operations.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

The increase of approximately $1,612,772 in cash provided by financing activities in the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, was due to cash received in connection with the issuance of related party notes net of $218,136 in payments on related party notes and $67,000 paid in offering costs.


 


Other than as discussed above, we know of no trends, events or uncertainties that are reasonably likely to impact our future liquidity.


 


Off Balance Sheet Arrangements


 



As of March 31, 2014, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements. We are not aware of any material transactions which are not disclosed in our financial statements.




 


Significant Accounting Policies and Critical Accounting Estimates


 


The methods, estimates, and judgments that we use in applying our accounting policies have a significant impact on the results that we report in our financial statements. Some of our accounting policies require us to make difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates regarding matters that are inherently uncertain. In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We are not choosing to “opt out” of this provision. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that our decision to opt out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards is irrevocable. As a result of our election, not to “opt out” of Section 107, DanDrit’s financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

TABLE OF CONTENTS




 



Our most critical accounting estimates include:






 


Property and Equipment — Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized, upon being placed in service. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed for financial statement purposes on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets which range from four to six years.


 


Intangible Assets — Definite life intangible assets include patents. The Company accounts for definite life intangible assets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board, (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification, (“ASC”) Topic 350, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” and amortized the patents on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of twenty years. Costs incurred in relation to patent applications are capitalized costs and amortized over the estimated useful life of the patent. If it is determined that a patent will not be issued, the related remaining patent application costs are charged to expense.


 


Revenue Recognition and Sales — The Company’s sales of its MelCancerVac colorectal cancer treatment have been limited to a compassionate use basis in Singapore after stage IIA trials and the vaccine is not currently approved for sale for any other use or location. The Company accounts for revenue recognition in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (SAB 101), FASB ASC 605 Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue when rights and risk of ownership have passed to the customer, when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, product has been shipped or delivered to the customer, the price and terms are finalized, and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Products are primarily shipped FOB shipping point at which time title passes to the customer.


 


Value Added Tax - In Denmark, Value Added Tax (“VAT”) of 25% of the invoice amount is collected in respect of the sales of goods on behalf of tax authorities. The VAT collected is not revenue of the Company; instead, the amount is recorded as a liability on the balance sheet until such VAT is paid to the authorities. VAT of 25% is also paid to Danish and EU vendors on invoices. These amounts are refundable from the respective governmental authority and recorded as other receivables in the accompanying financial statements.


 


Accounting Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimated.

OUR BUSINESS


 


Overview


 



We are a biotechnology company seeking to develop what we believe could be the world’s first vaccine against colorectal cancer. We have developed and patented compounds used in initial clinical trials in Europe and Asia including: (i) MelCancerVacTM (MCV) for treatment of cancer (one phase I/II trial in Denmark and two phase II trials in Denmark and Singapore), (ii) Tolerogenic dendritic cell (TDC) (pre-clinical stage in Denmark) and (iii) Melvaccine (MV) a melanoma cell lysate used as stand-alone vaccine (pre-clinical state in Denmark). We expect to continue these trials in the United States. Springing from academic roots in Denmark, DanDrit has built upon its scientific and medical skills to advance a number of candidate therapies, targeted initially at non-small-cell-lung-cancer (NSCLC) and colorectal-cancer (CRC). On September 22, 2008, MCV was authorized by the Singapore government for a named patient compassionate use for CRC. MCV, demonstrated potential efficacy in three single-arm Phase II clinical trials in cancer,. The three clinical trials generated data indicating prospects in a larger and different clinical setting. More specifically, this efficacy data needed to be confirmed in a comparative randomized trial. As a result, DanDrit Denmark, with the assistance of experienced practitioners in colorectal cancer treatment, has designed a randomized trial with 174 stage IV colorectal cancer patients. Neither the FDA nor any other comparable governmental agency has reviewed MCV. Therefore, any assessment of its safety or efficacy only reflects the opinion of the Company. Furthermore, it does not indicate that MCV will achieve favorable results in any later stage trials or that the FDA or comparable agency will ultimately determine that MCV is safe and effective for purposes of granting marketing approval.




 


Our Biotechnology


 


We plan to use a dendritic cell vaccine technology relatively similar to the technology behind Dendreon’s FDA approved ProvengeTM cancer vaccine. However, we believe DanDrit’s next generation of dendritic cell vaccine may benefit from technological competitive advantages over other cancer vaccines including:


 




	  	
●

	
The vaccine will be generated within eight days from a patient’s peripheral blood. We will be able to generate the vaccine quickly because only 200 ml of blood is required to be drawn. Leukapheresis (a medical technology in which the blood of a patient is passed through an apparatus -dialysis machine- that separates out one particular constituent and returns the remainder to the circulation which is used in Denderon’s ProvengeTM cancer vaccine) is not needed.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
The vaccine will use an allogenic (using cells, tissues, or organs, sourced from a genetically non-identical member of the same species as the recipient (“Allogenic”) tumor lysate (a fluid containing the contents of lysed cells, cells broken down by viral, enzymic or osmotic mechanisms that compromise their integrity “lysed cells”) as opposed to inconvenient autologous (from the patient) tumor lysate. A major limitation of autologous tumor cell vaccines is the low yield of autologous tumor cells that may compromise the number of immunizations given to patients (difficult to obtain enough cancer cells from the patient).  A second inconvenience is the variability of GM-CSF (a protein that functions as a white blood cell growth factor) secretion among patients, which could be responsible for the different levels of responses observed. But above all, although autologous tumor cells may be a good source of TAA for cancer vaccine development, limitations plus the significant time and expense required for the approval of each patient’s vaccine by the appropriate regulatory agencies severely limits the development of this type of immunization approach. DanDrit does not need a patient’s tumor cells to manufacture MCV.  Therefore MCV is not classified as an autologous vaccine.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
The vaccine will be polytopic (targets several cancer specific antigens, or antibody generator is any substance which provokes an adaptive immune response “antigens”). As a result, the risk of the tumor escaping is more limited and more T-cells can be activated than if the vaccine is targeting one antigen only. However, MCV has a focus on melanoma-associated antigen (“MAGE”)-A antigens that are only expressed by tumors and absent in normal tissues.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Fast track production in two days is possible.









 


Our Proposed Clinical Trial


 



Parallel with the establishment of a cancer vaccine center in the EU, DanDrit intends to develop globally MCV in colorectal cancer, with opportunities to expand the scope of the treatment to other types of cancer. DanDrit, as a sponsor, will focus on a randomized adaptive seamless Phase IIb/III clinical trial in stage IV colorectal cancer. The proposed Proof of Concept (PoC) study (a study conducted to provide the first evidence that a candidate drug such as MCV might be effective for a disease) with an adaptive design plans to enroll 174 stage IV colorectal cancer patients after resection of metastases and therefore no evidence of disease. Regulatory authorities in the United States and Europe have published guidance documents on the use and implementation of adaptive design trials. These documents include descriptions of adaptive trials and a requirement for prospectively written standard operating procedures and working processes for executing adaptive trials, as well as a recommendation that sponsor companies engage with CROs that have the necessary experience in running such trials.


 


The clinical study is designed as a randomized, placebo controlled, multicenter, adaptive seamless Phase IIb/III clinical study. Treatment is double blinded (to the patients and physicians). Patients will be included after resection of their primary tumor and resectable metastases and after appropriate peri-or post-operative chemotherapy by stratification and random assignment to a non-vaccine control group or a vaccine group receiving five vaccinations with 14-day administration intervals followed by ten vaccines with two-month intervals. Inclusion will take place one month after finishing the last round of peri- or post-operative chemotherapy (FOLFOX or FOLFIRI) and after a negative tumor scan (head, thoracic and abdominal cavities) and normal CarcinoEmbryonic Antigen (CEA) prior to inclusion in the vaccine or the control groups. Patients will be screened for MAGE-A expression. The control group will receive five plus ten injections with physiological saline. In the event of disease progression, as verified by tumor scan during the vaccination schedule, vaccinations will be discontinued.











The initial Phase IIb/III trials are currently contemplated to be initiated in Italy. Following the initial closing of the offering, we intend to file an Investigational Medicinal Product Dossier (IMPD) in Italy which is required to obtain a clinical trial authorization (CTA) to begin trials in any Europe state.  The IMPD and CTA review and approval process is anticipated to take approximately two-three months, and we anticipate that patients will begin to be enrolled for the Phase IIb/III trials in Italy in October or November of 2014.   DanDrit has not filed an investigational new drug (IND) application with the FDA in relation to the proposed trial but anticipates filing an IND application with the FDA by the end of 2014 to initiate the process to permit manufacturing capability of MCV in the U.S. and to include U.S. patients in the Phase IIb/III trials.  Once an IND application has been filed in the U.S., we believe that we will be able to expand the PhaseIIb/III trials initiated in Italy to the U.S., however, we cannot estimate at this time when we will be able to begin enrolling U.S. patients in the trial. Although we were a sponsor for only one of the three MCV clinical trials completed to date, we have obtained the case report forms (CRF) with respect to two of the three trials and have requested the CRFs with respect to the third trial and therefore we intend to present the results obtained from the MCV clinical trials for all trials in which we have been able to obtain the related CRFs to the FDA in connection with our IND application, when filed.  While we were not the sponsor or principal investigator for all of the trials, certain employees and directors of DanDrit were significantly involved in the design of the study and the analysis and interpretation of the data in all three studies and therefore believe that any weight applied to such trial in connection with our IND application will be focused on the results and data of the trials derived from the studies and disclosed in published papers or otherwise reflected in the CRFs rather than the level of our participation. In addition, we believe that the data received in connection with the Phase IIB/III trials contemplated to be initiated in Italy, will have the greatest weight applied in connection with its IND application anticipated to be filed with the FDA (see “Clinical Trials Data and Product Approvals).

Corporate History and Information


 



DanDrit was incorporated in Delaware on January 18, 2011 under the name “Putnam Hills Corp.” (“Putnam”) as a vehicle to pursue a business combination through the acquisition of, or merger with, an operating business. We filed a Registration Statement on Form 10 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 12, 2011.


 



On February 12, 2014, the Company signed the Share Exchange Agreement, by and among DanDrit USA, DanDrit Denmark and N.E. Nielsen, as the representative of the shareholders of DanDrit Denmark, pursuant to which the Company will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding equity securities in DanDrit Denmark in exchange for 6,000,000 of the issued and outstanding shares common stock par value $0.0001 per share of the Company. The Share Exchange was closed on February 12, 2014 pursuant to which the DanDrit Consenting Holders exchanged an aggregate of 3,879,624 equity interests of DanDrit Denmark for 5,814,947 shares of DanDrit USA. In accordance with Section 70 of the Danish Companies Act and the Articles of Association of DanDrit Denmark, the Non-Consenting Shareholders will be entitled to receive the 185,053 shares of common stock of DanDrit USA, reflected as issued and outstanding, that each such DanDrit Denmark shareholder would have been entitled to receive if such DanDrit Denmark shareholder had consented to the Share Exchange, up to an aggregate of 185,053 shares of common stock of DanDrit USA. As a result of the Share Exchange, the former shareholders of DanDrit Denmark became the controlling shareholders of the Company. The Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse takeover/recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein DanDrit Denmark is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The capital, share price, and earnings per share amount in these consolidated financial statements for the period prior to the reverse merger were restated to reflect the recapitalization in accordance with the exchange ratio established in the merger.


 


Upon the closing of the Share Exchange, DanDrit USA and the its majority shareholder immediately prior to the closing agreed to cancel up to 4,400,000 shares of our common stock.  In addition, following the closing of the Share Exchange, DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc., the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, merged with and into the Company, thereby changing and the Company’s name to “DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc.”




 



DanDrit USA will own 100% of the outstanding equity interests of DanDrit Denmark. As a result of the Share Exchange, we changed our management and reconstituted our board of directors. As of the effective time of the Share Exchange, Samir Masri, the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary and sole director of Putnam resigned as the sole officer and director of the company and appointed NE Nielsen, Dr. Jacob Rosenberg, Dr. Eric Leire, Aldo Petersen and Robert E. Wolfe as directors of Putnam, and Dr. Eric Leire as Chief Executive Officer and President and Mr. Wolfe as Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary.

Products


 


DanDrit plans to assess its lead compound, MelCancerVacTM (MCV), a cellular therapy, in a comparative Phase IIb/III clinical trial in advanced colorectal cancer. DanDrit uses a dendritic cell technology similar to the Dendreon’s FDA approved ProvengeTM cancer vaccine.


 




DanDrit’s MCV demonstrated potential efficacy in three separate Phase IIa clinical trials in colorectal and non-small cell lung cancer. Even if MCV can be used for various cancers, DanDrit has decided to initiate MCV’s clinical development with advanced colorectal cancer. We believe that a maintenance therapy for advanced colorectal cancer represents a genuine commercial opportunity for MCV. A clear and unmet medical need for a safe maintenance therapy offers the opportunity to confirm the potential efficacy of MCV in a favorable setting. Neither the FDA nor or any other comparable governmental agency has reviewed MCV.  Therefore, any assessment of its safety or efficacy only reflects the opinion of the Company.  Furthermore, it does not indicate that MCV will achieve favorable results in any later stage trials or that the FDA or comparable agency will ultimately determine that MCV is safe and effective for purposes of granting marketing approval.




 



DanDrit plans to conduct a randomized multicenter (anticipated to be located in Europe), company sponsored clinical trial to determine the safety and efficacy of MCV as adjuvant therapy in advanced colorectal cancer. The study will determine the ability of MCV to prevent recidivism in stage IV colorectal patients with no evidence of disease after surgical resection of liver metastasis and chemotherapy. Using an Adaptive Design Clinical Study, which allows modification made to trail and/or statistical procedures of ongoing clinical trials based on accrued data, the double blinded randomized Proof-of-Concept study (a study conducted in order to confirm feasibility) will evaluate MCV with standard of care against standard of care alone in 174 colorectal cancer patients using as primary endpoints Progression Free Survival at 18 months and Overall Survival. We anticipated that the blinded comparative trial can be completed within three years. We are confident that positive upcoming clinical data will be the catalyst to unlock commercial revenues for DanDrit through either acquisition by a pharmaceutical partner or licensing deals that would yield upfront and milestone payments as well as royalties.




 



DanDrit has learned how to manufacture dendritic cells, immune cells forming part of the mammalian immune system with the main function of processing antigen material and presenting it on the surface to other cells of the immune system, functioning as antigen-presenting cells, in vitro from monocyte (a type of white blood cell) precursor cells taken from patients eligible for DanDrit’s therapies. The preparation of tumor lysate containing selections of cancer-specific non-self antigens, allows DanDrit to sensitize patients’ dendritic cells. The use of the patient’s own monocyte cells from peripheral blood (autologous cell therapy) overcomes the issues associated with non-self allergic reactions to immune therapies.

TABLE OF CONTENTS




 



DanDrit’s intellectual property is protected with patents and trademarks. DanDrit’s candidate vaccines are based on the MCV platform that is protected by a family of issued or submitted patents. DanDrit’s lead product has completed Phase II clinical trials in Denmark and Singapore. DanDrit’s Singapore Phase II data was compelling enough that the Singapore authorities allowed the use of MCV for CRC on a humanitarian named patient basis. Outside the United States, named patient programs provide controlled, pre-approval access to drugs in response to requests by physicians on behalf of specific, or “named”, patients before those medicines are licensed in the patient’s home country. Governments worldwide, such as Singapore’s government, have created provisions for granting access to drugs prior to approval for patients who have exhausted all alternative treatment options and do not match clinical trial entry criteria. Often grouped under the labels of compassionate use, expanded access, or named patient supply, these programs are governed by rules which vary by country defining access criteria, data collection, promotion, and control of drug distribution. Through these programs, patients are able to access drugs in late-stage clinical trials or approved in other countries for a genuine, unmet medical need, before those drugs have been licensed in the patient’s home country. In September 2008, DanDrit Denmark and the National Cancer Centre of Singapore (NCC) entered a collaboration agreement regarding a clinical named patient program conducted in Singapore at NCC with the dendritic cell vaccine MCV.  NCC has established a GMP approved laboratory in which the manufacturing of MCV takes place. NCC has received approval from the relevant governmental authorities for the import of lysate necessary for production of MCV. The clinical and research and development activities of the named patient program relate to the Company’s product, MCV. The purpose for the Singapore named patient program is to provide patients with advanced colorectal cancer or other forms of cancer(s) with the presence of MAGE antigen expression an alternative treatment for the vaccination with MCV, where there is no further indication for surgery or treatment with chemotherapy. Patients are recruited on named patient basis according to the patient inclusion and exclusion criteria stated in the phase IIa study protocol. However, there may be some exceptional cases where treatment will be made based on a doctor’s discretion regarding the patient’s quality of life. An estimated total of 50 patients have been recruited for the Singapore named patient program and 8 patients are currently still active in the named patient program. To date we have not received a detailed report regarding the final outcomes for patients participating in the Singapore trials.








 


The colorectal cancer patients who are eligible for the humanitarian program in Singapore must present a profile similar to the one of the patients who were recruited in the phase IIa clinical trial. Also, patients are monitored according to the previous phase II study protocol.




 




To date, clinical trials of MCV have been targeted to patients in terminal stages of cancer with non-resectable bulky tumors who failed to respond to surgery and chemotherapy. Several patients showed extended overall survival with good quality of life. Several patients showed stable disease with no progression of tumors. There was evidence of tumor regression in some patients (see “Clinical Trials Data and Product Approvals”).


 


These achievements have been built on a carefully executed R&D program that generated practical solutions to scientific and medical challenges. Through this development program, DanDrit gained advanced understanding of the role of dendritic cells in immunoregulation and cancer.


 


Non-core applications of dendritic cell technologies mastered by DanDrit have applications in infectious diseases and auto-immune diseases such as diabetes (seventh leading cause of death in the US). These other applications represent opportunities for out-licensing and cooperation. Where other companies have non-core technologies of relevance to DanDrit’s core business in dendritic cell cancer therapy, we will pursue a policy of cooperation and in-licensing.


 


DENDRITIC CELLS, THE THERAPEUTIC PLATFORM


 


Summary


 




Early academic work at the Danish Cancer Society was spun-out into DanDrit Denmark. None of the personnel at the Danish Cancer Society, or any other third-party, retains any rights to the intellectual property underlying the Company’s business, technology or product candidates, including MCV. The fundamental scientific postulate of DanDrit is the fact that key cells in the immune system can be sensitized to cancer cells that carry foreign (or non-self) antigens. These key antigen-presenting cells are the dendritic cells. Dendritic cells encounter and recognize foreign antigens. Dendritic cells can assimilate and process the cells expressing these antigens. The key components of these antigens (known as epitopes and several epitopes are known as polytopes) are subsequently presented on the cell surface of the dendritic cell. Dendritic cells travel to lymph nodes and other lymphatic tissues where the epitopes are presented to other immune cells, including cell-killing T lymphocytes. T lymphocytes sensitized by dendritic cells can then recognize and kill tumor cells carrying tumor-specific antigens recognized by the dendritic cells. The main aim is to kill tumor cells without killing normal body tissues.


 






Dendritic cell interacting with T-lymphocyte


 






 



The above photograph (courtesy Science Photo Library) illustrates a dendritic cell (blue/green) communicating with a T-lymphocyte (gold). From DanDrit’s point of interest, this might represent a dendritic cell instructing a T-lymphocyte to kill tumor cells.


 



DanDrit presents itself as a “Cancer Vaccine” company and its lead product, MelCancerVac® (MCV), a polytopic vaccine, targets colorectal cancer in the first instance. In addition, DanDrit has developed several technologies relevant to dendritic cell production, including:


 





	  	●	
Generation of fast track dendritic cells


	  	  	  
	  	●	
Processing and presentation of protein antigen


	  	  	  
	  	●	
Characterization of DanDrit dendritic cells


	  	  	  
	  	●	
Analysis of lysate uptake by DanDrit dendritic cells


	  	  	  
	  	●	
MicroRNA profiling of DanDrit dendritic cells


	  	  	  
	  	●	
Effect of Resiquimod (a drug that acts as an immune response modifier, and has antiviral and anti-tumoral activity) on production of Interleukin 12 (Il-12), a secreted protein factor that is naturally produced by dendritic cells in response to antigenic stimulation and Interleukin 10 (IL-10), a protein that inhibits the synthesis of a number of other signaling proteins.

DanDrit’s vaccine candidates are based on the MCV platform and are protected by a family of issued and submitted patents. DanDrit’s lead product has completed Phase II clinical trials in Denmark and Singapore. DanDrit’s Singapore Phase II data were compelling enough for the Singapore authorities to make MCV available on a limited humanitarian named patient basis.


 





To date, clinical trials of MCV have been targeted to patients in terminal stages of disease who failed to respond to surgical resection and chemotherapies. Some patients showed extended overall survival with good quality of life. Many patients showed stable disease with no progression of tumor. There was evidence of tumor regression in some patients. (see “Clinical Trials Data and Product Approvals”).




 


Scientific and medical research is adding to DanDrit’s clinical and pre-clinical development pipeline in cancer. Some of this research in dendritic cells could have implications that reach beyond DanDrit’s cancer vaccine vision.


 


Dendritic Cells and the immune response


 


Dendritic cells were first recognized by Paul Langerhans in the late 19th century. For this reason such cells in the skin may still be referred to as Langerhans cells. The term “dendritic cell” was first used by Ralph Steinman and Zanvil Cohn in 1973. Steinman received the 2007 Lasker Award for this work and the 2011 Medicine Nobel Prize.


 


Like macrophages, cells whose role is to phagocytose, or engulf and then digest, cellular debris and pathogens, either as stationary or as mobile cells, dendritic cells are involved in the processing of antigens and their presentation to the cells that directly carry out the immune response through antibody generation (B lymphocytes) or cell killing activity (T- lymphocytes). Like macrophages, dendritic cells are mobile and once stimulated by an antigen, activated macrophages and dendritic cells move from their host tissue (usually skin or epithelial tissue such as gut, mucous membranes, lung etc.) to lymphatic tissues where they encounter and stimulate cells that mediate the immune response.


 


Unsurprisingly, macrophages and dendritic cells are closely related. Both are derived from circulating blood cells known as monocytes, a type of white blood cell which constitutes roughly 10% of all white blood cells. Monocytes, macrophages and immature dendritic cells are all phagocytic cells, that is, they engulf and process foreign antigens. On activation by the uptake of antigen, dendritic cells mature and become mobile. The mobile mature dendritic cells are capable of stimulating T-lymphocytes through the expression of T-cell stimulatory antigens on their cell surfaces.


 



It is possible to force monocytes to differentiate in vitro into immature dendritic cells. This is the basis of DanDrit’s proprietary dendritic cell production process. As in nature, DanDrit’s process involves a subtle communication between monocytes and cytokines (small proteins that important in the communication process that governs basic cellular activities and coordinates cell actions). Dendritic cells produced by DanDrit are functionally, morphologically and biochemically very similar – if not identical – to natural dendritic cells.

Figure 2 Principle of Dendritic Cell cancer vaccines


 





 




DanDrit’s platform technology is based on isolating patient monocytes and transforming them into immature dendritic cells in vitro. This is achieved by exposing monocytes to cytokines (interleukin 4, IL-4; and granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor, GM-CSF). Still in vitro these immature dendritic cells are activated by exposure to a cancer cell line lysate. This cancer cell lysate contains many “non-self” antigens of the cancer/testis family. Although coded by the human genome, these antigens are not normally expressed in tissues other than cancer or testis (note that testis and immune system are isolated from each other). Once sensitized in vitro, the immature dendritic cells are matured by exposure to a DanDrit proprietary cytokine cocktail. The now mature dendritic cells can be re-injected to the patient via a simple 0.2 ml intra-dermal injection and they will find their way to the lymphatic tissues. There, they will stimulate multiple cell killing (T) lymphocytes which will become sensitized to the cancer-specific antigens present in the lysate.


 






The Platform Technology, MelCancerVac®


 



MelCancerVac® (MCV) is a cellular immunotherapy for treatment of cancer. MCV has been studied in two cancers: Non-Small Cell Lung cancer (NSCLC) and colorectal cancer (CRC). The use of MCV is extended to other tumors in the mid-term such as the two types of esophageal cancers: esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (EC) and esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC).


 


DanDrit’s platform technology comprises two arms:


 




	  	
●

	
autologous dendritic cells obtained by the activation of patient-derived monocytes; and


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
proprietary lysate from melanoma-derived cell line expressing a range of cancer/testis antigens, notably the MAGE-A family









 




The melanoma lysate component of MCV is manufactured from a melanoma cell line established by DanDrit scientists. This cell line was isolated from a melanoma tumor that expressed antigens found in a wide range of tumors but not in normal tissues (other than the testis). These antigens belong to a family of cancer/testis antigens (including mostly MAGE-A antigens) found in many tumors.


 


Furthermore, by exposing DanDrit’s proprietary melanoma tumor cell to 5-aza-deoxycytadine (5-aza-CdR/Decitabine), which is an inhibitor of DNA methylation, DanDrit has shown that derived tumor lysates (MCV5AZA) express a far wider range of tumor-specific antigens.

Antigen characterization


 



For a patient to respond favorably to MCV, it is necessary that the antigens presented by the patient’s tumor show a significant match with the antigens in the lysate. The level of expression of antigens in each batch of lysate is determined by a procedure known as Reverse Transcriptase Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction or “RT-QPCR”. Clearly all patient cells will present many thousands of antigens, as will the lysate. MCV’s lysate component is isolated from a melanoma cell line that expresses a great many cancer/testis antigens at significant level. This broad spectrum of cancer/testis antigens is what makes MCV a good cancer vaccine. Figure 3 (below) shows how RT-QPCR can analyze levels of antigen expression as measured by messenger RNA.

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 



In this example, TA-1 to TA-28 are 28 known tumor antigens (antigens that are only expressed by cancer cells and not by normal cells). We can see that 14 of these antigens are present in MCV. Twenty-one cancer-specific antigens are expressed by the tumor in patient two, which indicates a good chance of promoting a cancer killing response. In patient one there is not a strong overlap of MCV antigens and the five patient’s tumor antigens. The chances of promoting a strong immune response are less but still significant (TA-3, TA-9, TA-18, and TA-19 are shared).


 


By analyzing patient’s tumors by RT-QPCR, it is possible to select patients that have the best chance of success with MCV. However, other uncharacterized antigens may also be present that might promote a response.


 




Clinical Trials Data and product approvals


 


Overall clinical results


 




No dendritic cell-based vaccination has to date demonstrated life-threatening side effects. The only potential adverse events associated with dendritic cell vaccines to date are a flu-like symptom with fevers (up to 39-40 degrees Celsius), chills, and headaches in some patients. The occurrence of these adverse events did not require additional treatment or hospitalization. Some patients may also develop a vitiligo, a skin condition in which there is a loss of brown color (pigment) from areas of skin, resulting in irregular white patches that feel like normal skin, when melanocyte differentiation antigens are used as targets in immunotherapy. However, this has not occurred, to DanDrit’s knowledge, with MCV in clinical trials that have been conducted to date.


 






MCV is produced according to the principles of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) in facilities approved by the Danish Medicine Agency and EU regulation for the production of medicines from patient blood in aseptic conditions. No products of animal origin are used during vaccine preparation. Quality control is performed for each individual batch of the vaccine as well as for the lysate used in the loading of dendritic cells.


 



MCV was originally developed in 2001 as a result of the combined research efforts of DanDrit researchers and employees and has been tested in clinical trials for the treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC) and non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

ColoRectal Cancer (CRC) in Denmark


 




The clinical trial using MCV at the University Hospital of Copenhagen, Gentofte, in Denmark was an investigator sponsored trial. The principal investigator and sponsor of the trial was Dr. Anders Fischer, a recognized specialist in surgical oncology in Demark and the department head of the Dept. of Surgical Gastroenterology at Copenhagen University Hospital in Gentofte, who received a grant to fund the trials provided by the Aase & Einar Danielsen Foundation. Dr. Jacob Rosenberg, a professor and surgeon, working in the Dept. of Surgical Gastroenterology at Copenhagen University and Dr. Mogen Claesson, a director of DanDrit designed the trial and proposed it to Dr. Fischer to act as sponsor and principal investigator. Enrollment of CRC patients started in October 2004 and the study ended in September 2006. Certain DanDrit staff, including Dr. Rosenberg and Dr. Claesson, as well as two other employees of DanDrit Denmark at the time of the study  closely collaborated with the researchers at Gentofte Hospital responsible for the day to day work of the study  with respect to the study design, analysis and interpretation of data obtained in the Denmark CRC Trial.  In addition, the patents and proprietary knowledge of DanDrit and its employees were utilized in connection with the analysis and interpretation of the data that resulted from the study. The results and findings of the trial were published in established scientific journals (Phase I study: J Exp Clin Cancer Res. 2006 Jun;25(2):201-6., Phase II study, clinical data: Oncol Rep. 2008 Dec;20(6):1305-11., Immunological data: Acta Oncol. 2009;48(8):1157-64.), which were co-authored by Dr. Rosenberg, Dr. Claesson and the two other DanDrit staff researchers.


 


The data described in this prospectus with respect to the Copenhagen CRC trial have been obtained from the published papers issued in connection with the study.  Twenty patients with advanced colorectal cancer (Dukes D - not curable by resection and no further conventional therapy options available) were included in the study (six patients in phase I and 14 in phase II).





 




The purpose of this open phase I/II study was to study the tolerability and effect of MCV given as intradermal injections to patients with metastasizing colorectal cancer, where there was no indication for surgery or chemotherapy. The first part was a phase I study to investigate whether treatment with MCV is in any way toxic. No toxicity was observed and the study continued into phase II to study the effect and tolerability of MCV. At the completion of the study stable disease was observed in twenty percent of the enrolled patients. This data was achieved with DanDrit’s early MCV vaccine, which has since been replaced by an improved MCV. The MCV was improved subsequent to the completion of the clinical trials described in this prospectus, but included the addition of aza-cytidine to the DDM-1 culture to de-methylize the genome in order to optimize tumor specific antigen expression. The benefit was marginal and did not justify switching to a different product during the trials. As a result, all trials we will present to the FDA and EMEA will use the same cell line and the same manufacturing process.

Study design: dendritic cells were generated from autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). In order to increase the level of circulating leukocytes, patients exercised five minutes on a treadmill before 200 ml of blood was drawn. Patients were scheduled for ten vaccinations consisting of 3-5x106 dendritic cells. Vaccinations were given bi-weekly intra-dermally on the proximal thigh with two injections each thigh. Adverse events were monitored and classified according to the National Cancer Institute’s Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI’s CTC). Evaluation of responses was made according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (“RECIST”) criteria and patients were CT scanned before entering the study, after five vaccinations and after ten vaccinations. Quality of life was monitored by questionnaires bi-weekly. The study was performed at the Department of Surgical Gastroenterology at Gentofte University Hospital, Copenhagen, Denmark according to ICH Guidelines for Good Clinical Practice (European Directive on GCP 2001/20/EC).




 



RECIST is a set of published rules that define when tumors in cancer patients improve ("respond"), stay the same ("stabilize"), or worsen ("progress") during treatments. The criteria were published in February 2000 by an international collaboration including the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (“EORTC”), National Cancer Institute of the United States, and the National Cancer Institute of Canada Clinical Trials Group. Today, the majority of clinical trials evaluating cancer treatments for objective response in solid tumors are using RECIST.


 




The aim of the phase II CRC study in Denmark was to evaluate the effect of treating patients with advanced colorectal cancer with a cancer vaccine based on dendritic cells pulsed with an allogenic tumor cell lysate. Twenty patients with advanced colorectal cancer were consecutively enrolled, with 17 completed the full study. Dendritic cells (DC) were generated from autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cells and pulsed with allogenic tumor cell lysate containing high levels of cancer-testis antigens. Vaccines were biweekly administered intra-dermally with a total of 10 vaccines per patient. CT scans were performed and responses were graded according to the RECIST criteria. Quality of life was monitored with the SF-36 questionnaire. Four patients of the 17 were graded with stable disease, two of whom remained stable throughout the entire study period. Analysis of changes in the patients’ quality of life revealed stability in the sub-groups: “physical function” (p=0.872), “physical role limitation” (p=0.965), “bodily pain” (p= 0.079), “social function” (p=0.649), “emotional role limitation” (p=0.252) and “mental health” (p=0.626). The median survival from inclusion was 5.3 months (range 0.2 - 29.2 months) with one patient still being alive almost 30 months after inclusion in the trial. Toxicity and adverse events were graded according to the National Cancer Institute’s common Toxicity Criteria. At the first evaluating CT scan, four patients were categorized with stable disease and at the second evaluating CT scan two of these patients still had stable disease and one of them received additional monthly vaccines because of the remaining stability in the disease. DanDrit determined that treatment with this DC-based cancer vaccine was safe and non-toxic. Stable disease was found in 24% (4/17) of the patients participating in the full study. The quality of life remained stable for most categories stable throughout the study period. Stable disease is defined as a tumor that is neither growing nor shrinking. Stable disease also means that no new tumors have developed and that the cancer has not spread to any new regions of the body (the cancer is not getting better or worse) and quality of life, measured using a global health score, was at the baseline with no or minimal variation. Variations in the patients' self-reported quality of life during the study period, assessed by the SF-36 questionnaire, were estimated using Freidman's statistical analysis. There were no significant variation in the patients' ‘physical function’ (p=0.872), ‘physical role limitation’ (p=0.965), ‘bodily pain’ (p=0.079), ‘social function’ (p=0.649), ‘emotional role limitation’ (p=0.252) and ‘mental health’ (p=0.626). There was a significant variation concerning ‘general health perception’ (p=0.006) and ‘vitality’ (p=0.011).

Primary endpoints of the study were tumor response according to RECIST criteria and quality of life (Burgdorf SK, Fischer A, Myschetzky PS, Munksgaard SB, Zocca MB, Claesson MH, Rosenberg J. Clinical responses in patients with advanced colorectal cancer to a dendritic cell based vaccine. Oncol Rep. 2008 Dec;20(6):1305-11. PubMed PMID:19020707) and secondary endpoints for the study were responses measured by immunological parameters (Burgdorf SK, Claesson MH, Nielsen HJ, Rosenberg J. Changes in cytokine and biomarker blood levels in patients with colorectal cancer during dendritic cell-based vaccination. Acta Oncol. 2009;48(8):1157-64. doi:10.3109/02841860903099964. PubMed PMID: 19863224).




 


As a measure of quality of life for the colorectal cancer trial in Denmark, DanDrit used the SF-36 Global Health Score questionnaire to evaluate the patients' quality of life throughout the study period.  At the time of the trial, this questionnaire from the Medical Outcome Study (MOS), conducted by the RAND Corporation, was both recommended and validated.  All patients in the trial independently filled in the questionnaire every two weeks. The SF-36 Global Health Score questionnaire consists of eight scaled scores, which are the weighted sums of the questions in their section. Each scale is directly transformed into a 0-100 scale on the assumption that each question carries equal weight. The lower the score is the more disability is reported by the patient. Higher scores reflect less disability i.e. a score of zero is equivalent to maximum disability and a score of 100 is equivalent to no disability. The eight different aspects of quality of life reflecting different aspects of the patient’s self-reported quality of life are:







 





	  	
●

	
vitality


	  	  	  
	  	●	
physical functioning


	  	  	  
	  	●	
bodily pain


	  	  	  
	  	●	
general health perceptions


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
physical role functioning


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
emotional role functioning


	  	 	  
	  	
●

	
social role functioning


	  	  	  
	  	●	
mental health











 



The fact that patients' SF-36 Global Health Score was high signifies that when entering the study the patients’ quality of life was comparable to the healthy background population.  The fact that it remained stable signifies that there were no significant changes in the patients’ quality of life during treatment. This correlates with the fact that the treatment was well tolerated by all patients and that investigators did not observe severe adverse effects from the treatment.


 



A more in depth analysis of the components of the patients’ quality of life revealed a stability in certain parameters that measure quality of life. The “p” refers to the p-value.  In a statistical test, the p-value is the probability of getting the same value for a model built around two hypotheses, one is the "neutral" hypothesis, and the other is the hypothesis under testing. In the Friedman analysis that was used for QOL testing in this study, a p-value below 0.05 means that the values varied throughout the observation period (but says nothing about increase or decrease). A p-value above 0.05 means that the QOL values were stable throughout the observation period.

 The Company does not believe that any significant information can be inferred from the variation observed, even if statistically significant, with respect to these two parameters as it would have been anticipated that these extremely sick patients with a progressive disease would have resulted in variations in QOL over the course of the study.  For this same reason, it is, however, more significant that 6 of the 8 parameters showed stability as it can be inferred that the treatment had a positive impact on the QOL of patients.







Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in Denmark


 




DanDrit sponsored and funded this MCV clinical trial conducted at Herlev Hospital, University of Copenhagen, in Denmark by Quintiles A/S (“Quintiles”) and ACRO Nordic A/S (“ACRO”) as contract research organizations (CROs). The title of the study is: “Vaccination with Autologous Dendritic Cells Pulsed with Allogeneic Tumor Lysate (MelCancerVac) for the Treatment of Patients with Advanced or Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer”. The principal investigator was Dr. Anders Mellemgaard, the head of the Department of Lung Medicine at Herlev Hospital. Dr. Claesson and three other DanDrit employees worked and collaborated with the researchers at the Herley Hospital with respect to study design and the analysis and interpretation of data obtained from the NSCLC Trial.  The results of the trial were published in a recognized scientific journal (World Journal of Vaccines, 2013, 3, 68-76) in a paper that was co-authored by Dr. Claesson and the three other DanDrit employees  that collaborated with the NSCLC Trial researchers.


 






The NSCLC trial was designed as an open-label, phase II clinical study. Enrolled patients had disseminated, inoperable NSCLC after chemotherapy; the patients did not want further chemotherapy: and no other systemic treatments could be offered to them.







 



The primary objective was to measure the antigen specific immunological reaction between vaccine antigens and the patients’ immune system in vivo and in vitro. The secondary objectives were to estimate the patients’ survival time, the tumor response according to RECIST criteria, and the patients’ quality of life during the study period. Primary endpoint was tumor response, assessed by clinical benefit rate, the percentage of patients with advanced or metastatic cancer who have achieved complete response, partial response and stable disease to a therapeutic intervention in clinical trials of anticancer agents (CBR), however the study also evaluated PFS and overall survival (OS) as secondary endpoints. Complete response (CR) is a figure representing the percentage of patients whose cancer disappears after treatment. Partial response (PR) is a figure representing the percentage of patients whose cancer shrinks after treatment. PR describes a tumor that has decreased in size by at least 30%. The term stable disease (SD) describes a tumor that is neither growing nor shrinking. SD also means that no new tumors have developed, and that the cancer has not spread to any new regions of the body (the cancer is not getting better or worse). The median overall survival was 7.4 months (95% confidence interval (CI), used to indicate the reliability of an estimate, 4.5-17.5 months). Two patients were still alive at the time of analysis. An exploratory analysis showed that patients with PR and SD had significantly better survival (median, 18.1 months) compared to those with progressive disease (median, 6.2 months; P = .007).  Although the median time to tumor progression was short at 2.4 months (95% CI, 1.9-4.1 months), five patients experienced a prolonged PFS of more than 6 months; and two of them (reviewed below) continued to be progression-free at time of analysis (PFS >27 and >37 months).


 


The first patient was included in January 2007. A total of 28 patients were included in the trial. Treatments prior to DC vaccinations, tumor histology, smoking status, number of vaccinations, age and gender were recorded.  The median age was 58.5 years (46-74 years).  All patients received systemic anti-cancer treatment prior to inclusion. At the time of inclusion, 15 patients were in performance status (PS) 0 and seven patients were in PS 1. Fifteen months after termination of the trial, 4 patients (patient number 1, 2, 12 and 13) were still alive.  These four patients who remained in stable disease after more than 10 vaccinations had different histology subtypes: one broncho-alveolar carcinoma, one squamous cell carcinoma and two adenocarcinoma. In this Phase IIa trial a 43% CBR (the percentage of patients with advanced or metastatic cancer who have achieved CR, PR and SD to a therapeutic intervention in clinical trials of anticancer agents) was observed, with six patients showing stable disease. Five of these patients were immunologically responding to the vaccine (ELISPOT –IFN Gamma positive) while eight of nine patients with no clinical response had no IFN gamma response.  Sixteen patients received at minimum six vaccines and were evaluated by CT scans. Of those, nine patients showed progression on the 1st evaluation CT scan three months after initiation of treatment, and seven patients had stable disease, representing a 43% CBR. For these 7 patients remaining in stable disease (SD) for a variable period of time, the overall survival curve showed a plateau after two years.

TABLE OF CONTENTS








 



In this NSCLC trial, quality of life was measured by self-administered questionnaire using EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ)-C30 version 3 and QLQ-LC13. The QLQ-C30 is composed of both multi-item scales and single-item measures. These include five functional scales, three symptom scales, a global health status/quality of life scale, and six single items.  Each of the multi-item scales includes a different set of items - no item occurs in more than one scale. All of the scales and single-item measures range in score from 0 to 100. A high scale score represents a higher response level. Thus, a high score for a functional scale represents a high/healthy level of functioning, a high score for the global health status/quality of life represents a high quality of life, but a high score for a symptom scale/item represents a high level of symptomatology/problems. Version 3.0 is currently the standard version of the QLQ-C30, and should be used for all new studies.  An essential component of the EORTC QLQ development strategy involves the use of cancer-specific supplementary questionnaire modules which, when employed in conjunction with the QLQ-C30, can provide more detailed information relevant to evaluating the quality of life in specific patient populations. The additional QLQ-LC13 questionnaire is specifically designed for lung cancer patients. The QLQ-LC13 includes questions assessing lung cancer-associated symptoms (cough, hemoptysis, dyspnea and site specific pain), treatment-related side effects (sore mouth, dysphagia, peripheral neuropathy and alopecia) and pain medication. The questionnaire was filled by the patients at baseline, and by the time of the 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th vaccinations. The data from the quality of life questionnaires was collected and coded according to EORTC. An overall evaluation of general quality of life-score for the global question of “How do you rate your overall quality of life during the past week” remained stable throughout the study period. More specific factors such as anxiety and lung specific symptoms also remained unchanged during the study-period.




 





The NSCLC trial in Denmark evaluated the clinical and immunological effects of dendritic cell (DC) vaccination in patients with NSCLC. Autologous DCs were pulsed with a MAGE containing allogenic melanoma cell lysate (MCV). Twenty-two patients initiated the vaccination program including a total of ten vaccinations. Seven patients remained in SD three months after the first vaccination.  After 10 vaccinations, six months after vaccine initiation, four patients still showed SD and continued vaccinations on a monthly basis. These four patients received a total of 12, 16, 26 and 35 vaccinations, respectively. Five patients showed unexpectedly prolonged survival. The treatment was well tolerated and only minor adverse events were reported. Quality of life did not change during the study period. In four out of seven patients with SD, vaccine-specific T cells were detected by interferon gamma (IFNγ) (a small protein that plays a role in immunity against infections and for tumor control mostly by activating microphages) EliSpot assays, whereas only one patient with progressive disease (PD) showed vaccine-specific responses.  This DC-based vaccine trial has indicated a correlation between vaccine-specific immunity and sustained SD. The finding of a significant correlation between prolonged disease stabilization and vaccine-specific cellular responses may support the latter notion and support the hypothesis that immune responses may play a role in disease control even long time after the actual treatment. This is in sharp contrast to the rapid effect of anti-cancer treatments such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Furthermore, the trial demonstrated an unexpectedly prolonged survival in some patients, which may indicate delayed effect of DC vaccination after completion of the treatment. In addition, the investigators reported that this kind of vaccine treatment was feasible and the logistics were manageable in this patient group.


 




In conclusion, 7 out of 22 NSCLC patients vaccinated with autologous DC pulsed with an allogenic Clinical Trial Authorization (CTA) containing tumor cell lysate had prolonged disease stabilization. In the course of DC vaccination vaccine-specific IFNγ responses were detected in peripheral blood of four of patients with SD and one patient with progressive disease.  However, from this study it is not possible to conclude whether the vaccine treatment and the subsequent IFNγ responses are involved in the clinical cause of these patients. To elucidate the full efficacy of vaccine treatment of patients with NSCLC, the investigators recommended that a randomized trial should be conducted. 


 


Colorectal Cancer (CRC) in Singapore


 



A single arm phase II clinical study was also sponsored and funded by the Singapore National Cancer Centre (NCC) to investigate the efficacy of intradermal vaccination with MCV in patients with advanced colorectal cancer. The principal investigator of the Singapore CRC Trial was Dr. Han Chong Toh, a recognized specialist in medical oncology in Singapore. While Dandrit Denmark was not sponsor of the trial, it assisted in the design and proposal of the trial to the SNCC and Dr. Toh. Dr. Claesson and two other DanDrit employees collaborated with the researchers at the Singapore National Cancer Center, with respect to the study design and the analysis and interpretation of data obtained from the Singapore CRC Trial. The results and findings of the Singapore CRC trial were published in recognized scientific journals (Clinical results: Clin. Cancer Res. 2009 Dec 15;15(24):7726-7736., Immunological data: Vaccine. 2009 Dec 11;28(2):542-7.) that was co-authored by Dr. Claesson and the two other employees of DanDrit Denmark that collaborated with the researchers at the NCC in Singapore.


 











The study used DanDrit’s patented procedure for generating dendritic cells. All included patients had tumors which antigenically correlated with the vaccine, i.e. were MAGE-A positive. The purpose of the study was to investigate the objective efficacy and specific immunologic response of the MCV vaccination. The first patient was enrolled in June 2005, and by June 2007 a total of 20 patients had been treated and evaluated.




 




The vaccine was given to advanced colorectal cancer patients pre-treated with chemotherapy, where there was no further indication for surgery or treatment with chemotherapy.


 


Treatment with MCV did not appear to adversely affect the patient’s quality of life, measured based on a global health score of 68.3 prior to treatment with minimal variation through the course of the treatment. The health-related quality of life assessment quantifies how the individual's well-being may be affected over time by a disease, such as cancer.  Health-related quality of life is assessed using patient questionnaires. These questionnaires are multidimensional and cover physical, social, emotional, cognitive, work- or role-related and spiritual aspects, as well as a wide variety of cancer related symptoms, therapy induced side effects, and the financial impact of cancer. The questionnaire from the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) is most commonly used to evaluate the impact of cancer on sufferers. MCV induced objective responses in seven of 20 patients (six responses were stable disease and one response was partial regression of tumor mass). Significant immunological and clinical correlation was observed. Results from the trial were presented orally at the AACR meeting in Singapore in November 2007.


 



The CRC trial in Singapore evaluated the efficacy and toxicity of MCV in advanced colorectal cancer patients expressing at least one of six MAGE-A antigens. Dendritic cells were cultured from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and pulsed with allogenic lysate and matured using cytokines to achieve high CD83 and CCR7 expressing dendritic cells. Each patient received up to 10 intradermal vaccinations (3-5 x 106 cells/dose) at biweekly intervals. Twenty patients received a total of 161 vaccinations. Treatment was well-tolerated with minimal adverse events. Quality of life measurement using global health score was high at baseline and did not change during the duration of the trial. In this study, statistical testing was done with repeated t-tests comparing baseline with each time point. or similar. A “t-test” is a statistical analysis used to determine whether there is a statistical difference between averages or means of a group with a small sample size. The “baseline” is a starting point from which a comparison can be made and is typically established prior to the beginning of a study as a point of comparison for monitoring and evaluating data at various point in a study.  The term “comparing baseline with each time point” refers to the comparison of data at a defined point in time against the originally established “baseline”.










Since the p-values did not change during the duration of the trial, we believe that there were no statistical differences regarding quality of life in this study in any of the parameters at any time points.




 


The colorectal cancer patients who are eligible for the humanitarian program in Singapore must present a profile similar to the one of the patients who were recruited in the phase IIa clinical trial. However, there have been some exceptional cases where treatment has been based on a doctor’s discretion on the patient’s quality of life. Also, patients are monitored according to the previous phase II study protocol. To date we have not received a detailed report regarding the final outcomes for patients participating in the Singapore trials.

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 




MAGE-A-expressing metastatic colorectal cancer patients with prior progressive disease treated with MCV achieved a competitive Clinical Benefit Rate of 40%. While patients with single metastatic sites in either lung or nodal regions tended to have more durable responses (see patients 1, 2 and 9 in table below), Stable Disease was also attained in patients with bulky multiple metastases (see patient 6 in table below). Five patients notably remained progression-free for over six months and two patients with significant tumor burden (see patients 1 and 9 in table below) were still progression-free for over 27 and 37 months respectively. We recognize that adopting the primary endpoint of Clinical Benefit Rate using RECIST criteria has limitations. This study protocol was designed in 2005 where objective response rate (ORR) and Clinical Benefit Rate evaluation as primary endpoints in Phase II cancer vaccine trials were not uncommon. Nevertheless, the investigators  did evaluate Progression Free Survival and Overall Survival as secondary endpoints, which may better reflect true vaccine efficacy.




 


A meta-analysis of 32 cancer vaccine clinical studies in patients with advanced colorectal cancer reported a Clinical Benefit Rate in 11.2% of patients and an overall response rate (Complete Response and Partial Response) of 0.9%. The defined clinical benefit rate (Complete Response, Partial Response, Stable Disease) was observed in 17% (12/70) of colorectal cancer patients who received Dendritic Cell vaccines.

As of 2006, there were a total of eight clinical DC vaccination studies in patients with metastatic colon cancer, all with peptide-pulsed DC. To our knowledge, this study which adopted an allogenic tumor lysate-based DC vaccine achieves the highest Clinical Benefit Rate in advanced colorectal cancer patients compared to these previous Dendritic Cell vaccination clinical trials. The clinical activity of this present Dendritic Cell-based vaccine might reflect its polytopic nature, its allogenic adjuvant-like components, the quality of the Dendritic Cell preparation (i.e. high uniform expression of CD83, CD86, HLA class II, and CCR7), the intradermal route of vaccine injection securing optimal lymph drainage to regional lymph nodes, the presence of MAGE expression in both patients and vaccine and the increased frequency of delivery (ten injections).


 







Quality of life measurement using global health score was high at baseline and did not vary much across time. In this study, statistical testing was done with repeated t-tests comparing baseline with each time point., Since the p. values did not vary across time, we believe that there were no statistical differences regarding quality of life in this study in any of the parameters at any time points.





 




Treatment with MCV did not appear to adversely affect the patient’s quality of life, measured based on a global health score of 68.3 prior to treatment with minimal variation through the course of the treatment. The health-related quality of life assessment quantifies how the individual's well-being may be affected over time by a disease, such as cancer.  Health-related quality of life is assessed using patient questionnaires. These questionnaires are multidimensional and cover physical, social, emotional, cognitive, work- or role-related and spiritual aspects, as well as a wide variety of cancer related symptoms, therapy induced side effects, and the financial impact of cancer. The questionnaire from the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) is most commonly used to evaluate the impact of cancer on sufferers. MCV induced objective responses in seven of 20 patients (six responses were stable disease and one response was partial regression of tumor mass). Significant immunological and clinical correlation was observed.




 


Compassionate Use/Named Patient Approval




 




Further to the data emerging from the Singapore CRC trial, the Singapore government requested and approved (22 September 2008) that named patients be offered MCV therapy at cost. This first compassionate use approval marked a significant milestone for the progress and acceptability of the MCV therapeutic model. This compassionate program could be used as a model to initiate sales of MCV in other countries of the ASEA such as Thailand or Malaysia. Outside the United States, named patient programs provide controlled, pre-approval access to drugs in response to requests by physicians on behalf of specific, or “named”, patients before those medicines are licensed in the patient’s home country. Governments worldwide, such as Singapore’s government, have created provisions for granting access to drugs prior to approval for patients who have exhausted all alternative treatment options and do not match clinical trial entry criteria. Often grouped under the labels of compassionate use, expanded access, or named patient supply, these programs are governed by rules which vary by country defining access criteria, data collection, promotion, and control of drug distribution. Through these programs, patients are able to access drugs in late-stage clinical trials or approved in other countries for a genuine, unmet medical need, before those drugs have been licensed in the patient’s home country. In September 2008, DanDrit Denmark and the National Cancer Centre of Singapore (NCC) entered a collaboration agreement regarding a clinical named patient program conducted in Singapore at NCC with the dendritic cell vaccine MCV. NCC has established a GMP approved laboratory in which the manufacturing of MCV takes place. NCC has received approval from the relevant governmental authorities for the import of lysate necessary for production of MCV. The clinical and research and development activities of the named patient program relate to the Company’s product, MCV. The purpose for the Singapore named patient program is to provide patients with advanced colorectal cancer or other forms of cancer(s) with the presence of MAGE antigen expression an alternative treatment for the vaccination with MCV, where there is no further indication for surgery or treatment with chemotherapy. Patients are recruited on named patient basis according to the patient inclusion and exclusion criteria stated in the phase IIa study protocol. However, there may be some exceptional cases where treatment will be made based on a doctor’s discretion regarding the patient’s quality of life. Approximately 50 patients have been recruited for the Singapore named patient program and 8 patients are still active in the named patient program.


 






Future: 100% Off-the-Shelve Vaccines


 


Autologous (from the patient) dendritic cells cancer vaccines are tailor made for each individual patient. This personalized medicine approach is appealing to the patients but may present several drawbacks to a pharmaceutical company. Creating a new, unique vaccine for each patient may be perceived as complex, time consuming, and expensive. Therefore, DanDrit is pursuing two programs to offer in addition to its personalized vaccine 100% off-the-shelve cancer vaccines: MCV2 and MelVaxinTM. These two programs presented below capitalize on the knowledge and the expertise gained with DanDrit’s proprietary lysate used for MCV.

Allogenic DC based vaccine: MCV2


 





First, DanDrit is developing MCV2 a 100% off-the-shelf dendritic cell vaccine through collaboration with the Etablissement Francais du Sang (EFS) / GeniusVac (France) pursuant to a Confidential Disclosure Agreement entered into in March 2013, with a Materials Transfer and Feasibility Study Agreement currently under negotiation. Through the proposed agreement, DanDrit would provide EFS with a certain quantity of its proprietary DDM-1.7 lysate, for the limited purpose of EFS using its GEN-T plasmacytoid DC line technology to conduct a feasibility study in collaboration with DanDrit, to demonstrate the potential efficacy of EFS’ technology and evaluate prospects of further cooperation between the parties. The GEN-T cell line is generated by EFS’ R&D laboratory in Grenoble. This cell line, loaded with tumor-derived antigenic peptides (HLA-A*0201 restriction) is being used as a cellular vaccine, to treat cancer patients. The DDM-1.7 lysate is produced by DanDrit to load autologous dendritic cells used to treat cancer patients. In this context, the main objective of the project is to determine if DDM1.7 lysate and GEN-T cell line can be combined to develop a new cancer vaccine. The main point is to validate that the GEN-T cell line, once loaded with the DDM1.7 lysate is able to present the DDM1.7-derived Ag to specific T lymphocytes. MCV2 is a cell-based immunotherapeutic product consisting of an irradiated plasmacytoid dendritic cell line presenting DanDrit’s proven lysate. DanDrit sourced the allogenic dendritic cells from EFS /GeniusVac. EFS/GeniusVac produces an allogenic plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) line that has demonstrated the induction of multi-specific and highly functional cytotoxic cell responses directed against tumor targets both In vitro and in vivo. These irradiated antigen-presenting pDCs have a strong power to induce specific antitumor response by cytotoxic DC8+ T-cells. The safety and efficacy allogenic pDC platform has been proven. Stimulation of PBMC from HLA-A*0201+ donors by HLA-A*0201 matched allogenic pDCs pulsed with tumor-derived peptides triggered high levels of antigen-specific and functional cytotoxic T cell responses (up to 98% tetramer+ CD8 T cells (a group of white blood cells known as lymphocytes and play a central role in cell-mediated immunity). The pDC vaccine demonstrated anti-tumor therapeutic in vivo efficacy as shown by the inhibition of tumor growth in a humanized mouse model. It also elicited functional tumor-specific T cells ex-vivo from PBMC and TIL of stage I-IV melanoma patients. Responses against MelA, GP100, tyrosinase and MAGE-3 antigens reached tetramer levels up to 62%, 24%, 85% and 43% respectively. pDC vaccine-primed T cells specifically killed patients’ own autologous melanoma tumor cells. This semi-allogenic pDC vaccine was more effective than conventional myeloid DC- based vaccines.


 












This Allogenic approach offers multiple advantages:




	 	  	  	  
	 	
●

	
The vaccine could then be mass-produced in a unique manufacturing facility

	          
	 	●	
Cost effective process


	 	●	
All manufacturing process can then be out-sourced (DanDrit does not need to support its own GMP manufacturing facility)


	 	●	
The MCV2 vaccine could be more likely to have higher potential efficacy than MCV. The allogenic DCs are further regarded as MHC-incompatible foreign invaders.  Then, they induce an inflammatory reaction that further promotes the recruitment and activation of endogenous DCs at the vaccination site. This hypothesis has now been verified in rat and mouse cancer models in which tumor growth was significantly reduced by therapeutic vaccinations with tumor-loaded allogenic DCs.










 




	  	
●

	
MCV2 is still using the clinically proven lysate used in MCV as cancer specific antigen


	 	 	 
	  	
●

	
“One- To- Many”: the same drug product could be used to treat several patients (consistent with current pharma business model).


	 	 	 
	  	
●

	
Fully standardizable product


	 	 	 
	  	
●

	
Guarantee of homogeneity of the clinical trials









 




MelvaxinTM


 


A second platform product, MelVaxinTM is also evaluated. MelVaxinTM is similar to the lysate component of MCV. DanDrit proposed injecting MelVaxinTM into the skin to promote natural dendritic cell responses that will attack the tumor expressing cancer/testis antigens. It is necessary to inject MelVaxinTM with an immuno-stimulator such as GM-CSF, BCG or novel adjuvants (such as 3M’s TLR7 and TLR8 agonists). A preclinical program has been planned in minipigs. These animals have immune response profiles, particularly of skin injection, that are very close to human. This program, currently on hold, can be reinitiated when staff is available to manage this program. This takes second place to the MCV2 program and illustrates DanDrit’s professional commitment to advancing lead clinical products.


 


Other Future Products


 


Other cancers


 


DanDrit has already made progress with clinical trials of NSCLC and CRC. DanDrit is now focusing its clinical development on advanced colorectal cancer, but DanDrit may if opportunity arises extend its range of cancer targets to answer the desperate need for effective new therapies. As an illustration, esophageal cancers may be one of these opportunities. The two types of esophageal cancers the esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (EC) and the esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) expressed MAGE -A. Worldwide, EC is the most frequent malignant esophageal cancer accounting for at least 10,000 deaths per year.


 


But in Western countries, EAC is the most rapidly increasing cancer compared with other malignancies. Surgical resection is currently the only potential cure with or without neo-adjuvant or adjuvant chemo-and/or radiotherapy, the five year survival rate is less than 20%. At first presentation, approximately 50-60% of patients with esophageal cancer are not eligible for surgery and have very poor outcome.

Tolerogenic Dendritic Cells


 


Some dendritic cells seem to instruct cell-killing T cell clones to abandon their mission by self-destructing through an apoptotic pathway. This may offer the possibility of eliminating those T cells responsible for the manifestation of auto-immune disease. In MCV dendritic cells are derived in such a way that the resulting dendritic cells promote an immune reaction. However, dendritic cells may also be derived in such a way that they are tolerogenic, they promote immune tolerance. Promoting immune tolerance can be used to treat autoimmune diseases such as early stage type I diabetes (where insulin secreting cells are still present) or even to help prevent rejection of tissue transplantation. In this way the tolerogenic dendritic cells are used to turn off an undesirable immune reaction. DanDrit has established methods to derive tolerogenic dendritic cells from peripheral blood monocytes, similar to the approach used to generate immunogenic dendritic cells in MCV. Tolerogenic dendritic cells are easily distinguished by their function in vitro. DanDrit has filed patents to cover the generation of tolerogenic dendritic cells.


 


Non-Core Products – Out-licensing


 


Non-core patents are being developed for application in dendritic cell related applications that are not cancer-related. Revenues from licensing such non-core products will support core product and core technology development.


 


The principal non-core intellectual property relates to tolerogenic dendritic cells, their production and application in auto-immune diseases to include type 1 diabetes. DanDrit’s fast track production methods for dendritic cells might be out-licensed for non-competitive applications in areas other than cancer.




 


Fast-track production of Dendritic Cells


 


The generation of mature immunogenic dendritic cells from peripheral blood monocytes requires eight days of growth in culture. The efficiency of producing MCV could be improved if the time required to generate dendritic cells could be significantly reduced. DanDrit has tested many protocols for generating dendritic cells quickly. Two promising methods have emerged from intensive research activities to generate dendritic cells in either two days or five days. The fast track methods for generating dendritic cells produce immunogenic dendritic cells that are comparable to cells generated using DanDrit’s standard technique. These new fast track methods are covered by DanDrit’s existing dendritic cell technology patent.


 


This fast-track production technology could be of commercial interest for other companies working in non-competitive areas of dendritic cell technology.


 


MicroRNAs for dendritic cell quality control


 



DanDrit patented a method using microRNAs to characterize dendritic cells and establish a basis for quality control. To date there are few dendritic-cell specific antigens and those existing are covered by patents. DanDrit has patented its microRNA approach developed with Bioneer (note that patents are 100% owned by DanDrit).




 


Proposed Clinical Trial


 


The proposed PoC study with an adaptive design plans to enroll 174 stage IV colorectal cancer patients after surgical resection of metastases and chemotherapy. Regulatory authorities in the United States and Europe have published guidance documents on the use and implementation of adaptive design trials. These documents include descriptions of adaptive trials and a requirement for prospectively written standard operating procedures and working processes for executing adaptive trials, as well as a recommendation that sponsor companies engage with CROs that have the necessary experience in running such trials.



 


The proposed patients in the trial will therefore have no evidence of disease. The clinical study is designed as a randomized, placebo controlled, multicenter, Phase IIb/III clinical study. Treatment is double blinded (to the patients and physicians). Patients will be included after resection of their primary tumor and resectable metastases in liver and after appropriate peri- or post-operative chemotherapy by stratification and random assignment to a non-vaccine control group or a vaccine group receiving five vaccinations with 14-day administration intervals followed by ten vaccines with two-month intervals. Inclusion is planned to take place one month after finishing the last round of peri- or post-operative chemotherapy (FOLFOX or FOLFIRI) and after a negative tumor scan (head, thoracic and abdominal cavities) and normal CEA prior to inclusion in the vaccine or the control groups. Patients will be screened for MAGE-A expression. The control group will receive five plus ten injections with physiological saline. In the event of disease progression, as verified by tumor scan during the vaccination schedule, vaccinations will be discontinued. The table below summarizes the key features of the proposed PoC clinical study.


 


Traditionally drug development has consisted of a sequence of independent trials organized in different phases.  Full development typically involved (1) a learning phase II trial and (2) one or two confirmatory pivotal phase III trial(s).  The new seamless phase II/III designs are aimed at interweaving the two phases of full development by combining them into one single, uninterrupted study conducted in two steps. Adaptive seamless clinical trial designs have proved to be effective in several clinical research areas, such as the development of Velcade intended for multiple myeloma and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma  or a long-acting glucagon-like peptide-1 analog (dulaglutide) in a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study of overweight/obese patients with type 2 diabetes: the EGO study. Adaptive seamless phase II/III designs enable a clinical trial to be conducted in steps with the sample size calculation selected on the basis of data observed in the first step to continue along to the second step. The main statistical challenge in such a design is ensuring control of the type I error rate. Most methodology for such trials is based on the same endpoint being used for interim and final analyses. However, in some settings like our clinical trial, the primary endpoint, overall survival, can be observed only after long-term follow-up.  In this case the design includes a shorter term endpoint data, in our case, progression free survival at 18 months. If short-term data are available for some patients for whom the primary endpoint is not available, basing treatment selection on these data may lead to increase of the type I error rate (false positive).

Critical Success Factors


 


The points below are a specific, focused list of critical factors and challenges that need to be considered for the project, during the critical start-up phase and throughout the project life cycle. In addition to the sections noted below, during the course of the study, DanDrit will be pro-active in discussing the Critical Factors with the investigators.


 


Oncology studies by their nature have a degree of complexity not always encountered in other therapeutic areas. We believe success of the CRC study will be related to these Critical Success Factors. Our approach to each critical factor is detailed below. DanDrit identified the following key factors for success:

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 



Patient accrual and site selection




 


The proposed study is anticipated to enroll 174 patients at approximately 22 sites in Europe. Although the number of potential stage IV patients is significant, only a portion of these, approximately 10-20%, will have complete resections of their primary tumors and metastatic disease with no detectable residual disease (i.e. clear resection margins). This coupled with a competitive oncology vaccine research environment will put pressure on accrual milestones.


 




The selected patient population will be easier to work with than the patients in Phase IIa. It is reasonable to expect the response rate to be greater for MCV, or for any immunotherapy, in a patient population with No evident Disease (NED). Consequently in this Phase IIb/III trial, patients will have to be NED, raising the likelihood that the immune system can generate a response against cancer as it re-occurs. We believe this may ultimately lead to better data from the Phase IIb/III trial. Careful selection of study sites using evidence based feasibility research, discussion with colorectal key opinion leaders (KOLs), contact with investigators at key sites and our past clinical experience in this indication and with cancer vaccines will be required. While there are currently no definitive agreements in place, the Company and its management are currently in negotiations with respect to various study sites to complete these trials, including the Dana Farber Harvard University in the US, the Institut Gustave Roussy (IGR) in France, and the GISCAD Foundation for Research on Cancer (GISCAD) in Italy (Pr. Sobrero), all of which are recognized as among the world’s premier cancer research and treatment facilities and leaders in immunotherapy research. In addition, the Company is also considering the option to conduct the trial in Italy exclusively in collaboration with GISCAD, which conducted a clinical trial evaluating FOLFOX-4 3 months vs. 6 Months and Bevacizumab as adjuvant therapy for patients with Stage II/III CRC.  The network of Italian hospitals enrolled 3,800 patients in the recent Thiazolidinediones or Sulfonylureas and Cardiovascular Accidents (TOSCA) trial.




 


Accrual rates are estimates and can be further refined. Inadequate enrollment is one of the biggest drivers of wasted cost and time in clinical trials. Therefore, DanDrit has taken a very conservative position regarding site selection and patient enrollment.




 


Assessment of patient response


 


In general, in oncology vaccine studies, the relationship between clinical response, survival (and other measures of efficacy) and immune response may be unclear. Changes in patients’ immunological profiles during vaccination protocols, their response to the vaccine components as measured by delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH), used as the primary measure of the ability to immunize a patient to a tumor cell or specific tumor antigen; the enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot (ELISPOT), a common method for monitoring immune responses In humans; cluster of differentiation (CD) antigen profiles, protocol used for the identification and investigation of cell surface molecules; and other strategies to attempt to correlate treatment outcome with the results of vaccination are variable. The paper describing the Phase II study in CRC patients by Toh et al indicates that a plasma protein expression profile has been identified for responding patients. Continued evaluation of immunological profiles of the patients and the collection of these data and correlation with outcomes may be desirable but for this POC study will not be necessary.


 


In a guidance document by the FDA, “Clinical Considerations for Therapeutic Cancer Vaccines” (September 2009), the agency recognizes that immunological approaches to tumor control may require significant time to develop, and that careful clinical assessment of patients must be performed as well as the use of methods that rely on radiological measurement of tumor size (e.g. RECIST). The guidance indicates that for cancer vaccines, patients may be observed to develop indications of progressive disease based on radiological measurement, but that these indications may also be transient and that tumor regression is still a possibility as the immunological response develops. Methods to incorporate such an approach will help avoid premature termination of study treatment for some patients.


 


Tumor burden has also been a confounding problem for oncology vaccine development because of tumor-induced immune-suppression in some patients and because of progression prior to immune response. These issues may be obviated in this study of no-evident-disease subjects.


 


Patient safety


 



DanDrit believes that MCV appears to be safe and well tolerated in studies to date. Adverse events related to the vaccine appear to be Grade 1-2 and consist of mostly superficial toxicities as describe above. Patients in the proposed study will have recovered from previous treatments and will be apparently disease free: thus, at this time, only general safety precautions and observations related to the patient population are recommended.


 




Injection site reactions and other toxicities expected in the class of DC vaccines will be included in site training. Some volume of Severe Adverse Events can be anticipated in a population of advanced CRC patients. Discrimination of events related to vaccine against a background of underlying disease and prior chemo or and/or radiotherapy will be necessary.


 


The CRO’s pharmacovigilance scientists will prepare a Safety Management Plan to specifically outline the procedures to be followed and will train the site personnel to obtain, collect, verify, transmit and coordinate a timely and efficient manner.


 


In addition to reviewing assignment of causality, a DSMB may assist in the (proposed) interim assessment for efficacy and its constitution should be considered.

Regulatory


 


DanDrit will seek scientific advice from the European Medicines Agency EMEA (ATMP) in connection with the Phase IIb/III trials in Italy and will request a pre-Phase II/III meeting with the FDA. The CRO Regulatory Affairs group or GISCAD will provide preparation and assistance for the Scientific Advice process in EMEA including the following activities:


 




	  	
●

	
Regulatory review of pertinent data


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Discussions/kick off meeting with DanDrit contact(s), for background, pertinent issues, proposed questions, strategic discussion etc.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Prepare a briefing package for Scientific Advice includes QC (one review round with DanDrit) using the existing information in the Investigational Medicinal Product Dossier(IMPD)/Investigator Brochure(IB) as the basis for the package


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Set up and attend meeting with EU regulatory agency and conduct all associated administrative tasks (letters, post meeting minutes, etc.)









 



Upon receipt of funding in connection with the initial closing of this offering, we anticipate seeking a clinical trial authorization to commence a Phase IIb/III trial in Italy  which we anticipate will run over a three year period. DanDrit also has the option to evolve the Phase IIb to a Phase III trial through the use of an adaptive design. Ordinarily a drug requires two Phase III trials before it can apply for FDA approval. Consequently the first patient for Phase IIb could be considered commencement of ‘pivotal’ trials for MCV. Also, DanDrit intends to move to a pivotal trial in China with a Chinese partner. Currently, the China Food and Drug Administration offers a low-cost clinical development pathway for cancer drugs developed, manufactured and commercialized in China. A separate local CRO will be recruited for this Chinese trial. DanDrit intends to file an investigational new drug (IND) application with the FDA to initiate the process to permit manufacturing capability of MCV in the U.S. and to include U.S. patients in the PhaseIIb/III trials initiated in Italy. Once an IND application has been filed in the U.S., we believe that we will be able to expand the PhaseIIb/III trials initiated in Europe to the U.S., however we cannot estimate at this time when we will be able to begin enrolling U.S. patients in the trial.


 




Our Competitive Strengths


 


We believe our following strengths position us to increase our revenue and profitability:


 




	  	
●

	
Cutting Edge Technology. Immunotherapy is one of the waves of the future in cancer treatment.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Colorectal Market Potential. Colorectal cancer is a large market with a well identified unmet medical need for safe maintenance therapy. The clinical data for MCV to date gives the potential for the vaccine to eventually become the standard of care for maintenance therapy. MCV has the potential to alter the treatment paradigm by prolonging periods of remission after response to chemotherapy. If MCV works as expected in colorectal cancer, we believe it would likely prove beneficial in other tumors that over-express MAGE-A including lung, breast and esophageal cancer.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Regulatory Precedent. Dendreon with ProvengeTM, its prostate cancer vaccine, pioneered the regulatory pathway for MCV. Dendreon worked with the FDA to develop the protocols allowing a cellular therapy such as MCV to be approved for clinical use. DanDrit could be the next generation of dendritic cell vaccine with several improvements over its competition: stimulate a cellular immune response rather than just an antibody response, no need for leukapheresis to produce the vaccine, intradermal administration, convenience of an allogenic vaccine, polytopic approach but with a focus on the MAGE-A antigen family and reliable manufacturing.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Successful Use in Singapore. For the last five years, the Singapore National Cancer Center have provided MCV to colorectal cancer patients within an on-going compassionate use program in Singapore. Based on that experience, DanDrit is building a potential collaboration with a Chinese oncology pharma partner that may speed up large scale commercialization of MCV.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Strong IP Protection. The technology is patented with a long patent life. DanDrit owns 100% of the technology, without intellectual property issues.









 


Our Strategy


 


Our strategy is focused on conducting a proof-of-concept clinical trial in advanced colorectal cancer that may trigger partnership deal that should bring a significant return on investment (based on analysis of past acquisitions of peer cancer vaccine companies).


 



DanDrit intends to conduct a randomized multicenter clinical trial to determine the ability of MCV to prevent recidivism in stage IV colorectal patients with no evidence of disease after surgical resection of metastasis and chemotherapy. The same need for a safe effective maintenance therapy exists for stage III colorectal cancer patients with no evidence of disease after surgical resection.

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 


This blinded comparative trial is planned to be completed within three years. DanDrit’s management is confident that upcoming clinical data will be the catalyst to unlock commercial revenues for DanDrit through either acquisition by pharmaceutical partner or licensing deals that would yield upfront and milestone payments as well as royalties.


 


We are also considering a registration trial to support potential approval of MCV in China. This trial would be conducted under China Food and Drug Administration regulations with a Chinese oncology pharmaceutical partner, such as the TASLY Group or 3S Bio. Contacts with 3S Bio and the TASLY Group have already been initiated. China has recently put in place a drug approval system that includes a low-cost first clinical approval pathway especially for Chinese biotechnology companies. The approval for local biotechnology players is advantageous, since costs for a pivotal clinical trial in China are estimated at one tenth of EU or U.S. costs. Therefore, we plan to collaborate with a Chinese company such as the TASLY Group to develop, manufacture and sell MCV in China. Several factors are also making a partnership with a Chinese pharmaceutical company attractive:


 




	  	
●

	
For registration, the clinical trial can only be performed in sites approved by the China Food and Drug Administration. By November 2010, there were 112 oncology sites in Mainland China.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Screening for MAGE-A could be attractive to the China Food and Drug Administration, but tumor samples could not be shipped outside of China for genomic testing. Therefore a partner who can perform MAGE-A screening in China is valuable.









 



In addition, the China Food and Drug Administration relies more than other agencies on risk benefit assessment. Risk benefit assessment in China remains the “heart” of determining the value of products and is a more favorable assessment approach to MCV as the vaccine is, thus far, well tolerated with what DanDrit believes to be a strong safety profile (due to dendritic cell technology).


 




Furthermore, due to high unmet medical need, the approval for cancer drugs is also more favorable than in other regions of the world. Because cancer is the first cause of mortality in China, the approval process for oncology drugs benefits from easier rules than those that govern drugs targeting other diseases. The State Food and Drug Administration (the predecessor of China Food and Drug Administration) granted 114 CTA approvals for oncology global/regional trials from 2005 to 2010. Generally, in order to approve a cancer drug in China:


 




	  	
●

	
Usually only one pivotal study is required


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
With only 100 to 800 patients (most likely 300 patients)


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
An open-label study design is accepted (without placebo control)


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
The statistical consideration are also attractive as relatively low statistical significance (P value 0.03~0.05) is required


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Overall additional flexibility exists for oncology drugs, driven by the benefit/risk ratio









 


Furthermore, a special review and approval procedure applies to oncology drugs. The review and approval procedure could shorten the review time and can enhance communication with the China Food and Drug Administration. By the end of 2010, 28 drugs obtained approval, and more than half were oncology drugs (ten chemical drugs, and five biologics).


 


We believe that it is important to take advantage of this development opportunity quickly as the paradigm for oncology drug development is changing rapidly in China:


 




	  	
●

	
There is an unprecedented number of anti-cancer therapies in development and the standard of care changes quickly


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
The complexity of information concerning tumor genetics and signaling pathways is growing and will bring greater opportunities for personalized medicine









 


Industry


 


Cancer deaths remain constant, partly because people are living longer. DanDrit’s lead products for NSCLC and CRC address about 40% of all cancer deaths. Other important cancers include Breast (8% of deaths), Prostate (6% of deaths) and Pancreas (6% of deaths). Together these top 5 cancers are responsible for 60% of all cancer deaths.

With the 12,667,500 estimated number of new cancer cases in 2008, cancer remains a large market opportunity. Cancer is still the main cause of death in developed countries – accounting for ~33% of death and remains an area of huge unmet medical need. The cancer market has a high growth potential for the coming years with an expected 7% annual growth rate for the years 2011- 2018. The American Cancer Society figured out 1,638,910 new cancer cases in the US for 2012 with 577,190 associated deaths.


 


In Europe the number of new cancer cases for 2012 was estimated at 3.45 million with a 1.75 million deaths. The cancer market is the fastest growing pharmaceutical market with $83 billion expected growth of the cancer drug market by 2020.


 


The per-treatment price of chemotherapy for CRC is approximately $30,000. We expect that, if our vaccine is approved for use in CRC patients, the cost per-treatment will be approximately equal to the per-treatment cost of chemotherapy.


 


Due to its safety profile, MCV should fit easily into the treatment paradigm of most cancers. The initial label of adjuvant therapy for stage IV colorectal cancer with no evidence of disease after surgical resection of metastases could be a door opener for the larger colorectal cancer market. DanDrit’s pharmaceutical partner should be able to grow the label to the larger adjuvant for stage III colorectal cancer market.


 


Colorectal Cancer


 


The figure below presents the market opportunity for MCV in advanced colorectal treatment. The global colorectal cancer market peak opportunity for MCV can be valued at US$4.6 billion using quite conservative assumptions.


 





 



Despite numerous therapeutic advances, colorectal cancer continues to be associated with one of the worst survival rates of all cancers. Metastatic liver disease is found in 10% to 25% of patients having surgery for primary colorectal cancer instead of liver metastasis are detected in 40-50% of patients with diagnosed colon cancer. Then, standard of care “treatment” for colorectal cancer patients after resection surgery and chemotherapy is only observation. When surgical resections of liver metastases are possible, as in 20% of the affected patients, five years survival may approach 35%. According to the most recent papers, the median PFS in patients receiving combined surgery and chemotherapy with No Evidence of Disease is 24-26 months. The same need for a safe effective maintenance therapy exists for stage III colorectal cancer patients with no evidence of disease after surgical resection and chemotherapy.

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 


We believe that it is of great importance for colorectal cancer patients receiving surgery alone or surgery combined with peri- or post-operative chemotherapy, that new and more effective therapies are developed and offered in the post-treatment period. The aim of the proposed trial is to study whether our lead vaccine can increase the progression-free survival for these patients.


 


Licensing Potential and Cooperation Agreements


 


The following discussion represents opportunities that we believe can expand the use of our technology.


 


Alliance with Chinese Company


 


In addition of the size of their national market, Chinese biotech firms currently benefit from a low cost first clinical development path. The Chinese approval process is favorable for local biotechnology companies. With a Chinese partner, we plan to conduct a Phase III trial in China for lower costs than in the U.S. and at a faster pace. A successful Phase III trial could result in large scale commercialization in China and Southeast Asia.


 


Furthermore, the domestic market in China for cancer therapies is expected to grow due to a large aging population, expanded insurance coverage, higher government healthcare spending, rising disposable incomes and the high incidence of cancer among the population. In spite of recent price cuts, we believe that the market for cancer therapies in China represents a long-term opportunity based on the factors set forth above. In 2010, oncology agents (17.1%) ranked second in sales, at 17.1%, only after anti-infective agents (23.1%) and before cardiovascular drugs (13.4%). This market segment is expected to continue to grow at a CAGR of over 20% from 2009 to 2014.


 


Alliance Strategy


 



In addition to its lead compound MCV, DanDrit has built a pipeline of dendritic cell based cancer therapies, currently addressing 40% of all cancer-related deaths. MCV can be indicated to cancers over-expressing MAGE-A.  Cancers over-expressing MAGE-A include among others, lung cancer, colorectal cancer, breast cancer, and esophageal cancers.  The 2010 CDC cancer incidence and mortality statistics report listed 575,000 deaths by cancer in the US in 2010.  In the same 2010 CDC report, mortality of lung cancer (160,000 deaths), colorectal cancer (52,000 deaths), Breast cancer (41,000 deaths) and melanoma (9,500 deaths) summed up to 262,500 deaths. DanDrit intends to work with strategic partners to strengthen the in-house pipeline.




 


We control key technologies with relevance outside our core business area and these we may out-license or co-develop with suitable partners.


 


MyTomorrows


 



In December 2013, DanDrit entered an agreement with MyTomorrows (“MT”), a Dutch company, regarding a Patient Name Use Program (PNU) for MCV. This program will allow DanDrit to sell MCV for one year of treatment (10 vaccines) to cancer patients through MT. MT offers a worldwide online platform providing access to non-registered medicines for patients with life threatening diseases.




 



MT is a turnkey solution and will be in charge of regulatory, recruitment, logistics, and pharmacovigilance. DanDrit’s potential liabilities are limited to quality control of cGMP manufacturing of MCV. DanDrit expects several benefits from this agreement. First, in 2014, DanDrit anticipates short term revenue generation as MT will transfer payment as soon as a patient orders MCV. DanDrit also anticipates that this program may contribute to lowering the cost of manufacturing of the clinical lot through economy of scale. This program may also generate real life data for MCV.




 


Manufacturing


 


In 2011 and 2012, DanDrit has out-sourced the GMP manufacturing of its lysate. We believe that proving that our technology transfer was possible was a key step in finding and working with a future pharmaceuticals partner. DanDrit evaluated several possible EU-based contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) and selected PX Therapeutics SA, a CMO based in Grenoble, France. The collaboration with PX Therapeutics SA in France demonstrated that GMP production of lysate could not only be transferred but that the production could be scaled up. We consider that the potential economy of scale that can be expected in the cost of lysate production could become a competitive advantage versus other cancer vaccine companies using recombinant production of cancer-specific antigens (i.e. Mage-A3 from GSK). Also, the collaboration with the French CMO is based on a pure fee-for-services basis and can be discontinued at any time without notice.


 


In addition, DanDrit will spend a small part of the net proceeds on improving the manufacturing of the MCV vaccine. DanDrit intends to establish a closed fully automatized manufacturing process. We learned from the Dendreon’s experience that an efficient manufacturing process should be in place before approval for commercialization. Cost saving should be expected from a fully automatized vaccine production. We also assume that a fully efficient manufacturing process may increase the value of a deal with a pharmaceutical partner.


 



Cell Banking


 


The melanoma cell lines used by DanDrit in the production of our lysate (MCL) are stored at ultra-low temperature in liquid nitrogen at Symbion Science Park, Copenhagen, Denmark. Both master- and working cell banks are stored this way and the contents of the cell banks (both master and working) are recorded in log books. Nitrogen levels are maintained by the staff of DanDrit Biotech at least once a week and any activity in regards to storage (shipment of cells, nitrogen levels etc.) are documented in the appropriate log book.


 


Furthermore, for security reasons, samples of the master cell banks are also stored at specialized cell storage facilities in England. In addition, samples of one working cell bank from the DDM1.7 cell line are stored at PX Therapeutics in France for production purposes.

Sales, Marketing and Distribution


 


The business model of DanDrit is to focus on early development of dendritic cell based vaccine. We have significantly reduced the fixed costs linked with our operation and do not intend to build an expensive marketing, sales and distribution organization. We will rely on pharmaceutical partners with demonstrated relevant experience in commercialization of cancer products to market, sell and distribute MCV. Therefore, we have already identified and establish a communication line with several potential future pharmaceutical partners. At completion of the comparative clinical trial, we plan to enter into a collaboration agreement with a pharmaceutical partner regarding the regulatory approval, marketing, sales and distribution of MCV.


 


Intellectual Property


 



As a company primarily focused on pharmaceutical research, we expect that our most valuable assets are our intellectual property. This includes U.S. and foreign patents, patent applications, common-law trademarks, trade secrets and know-how. We are pursuing an aggressive intellectual property strategy.


 


DanDrit intends to aggressively defend its patents through legal process if necessary. Where appropriate, DanDrit may in-license intellectual property that may add to the strength and defense of our core business. DanDrit’s intellectual property comprises patents, trademarks, copyright and secret know-how.




 


DanDrit’s core business is cancer therapy. Where DanDrit’s patents and secret know-how are applicable to non-core business areas we will consider out-licensing for relevant non-core applications.


 


DanDrit filed its first Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) patent application on November 29, 2002 with priority claimed from 2001 with the Danish application, shortly after our formation.


 


DanDrit may continue to patent its innovations, such as novel dendritic cell production systems or dendritic cell quality control. To support potential income streams DanDrit may patent non-core applications of its dendritic cell technologies so as to secure future revenue streams from out-licensing activity.


 


Patents


 




	  	
●

	
Pharmaceutical composition for inducing an immune response in a human or animal (2001 Denmark (DK), 2002 PCT)


	  	  	
This patent was first filed in November 2002. The patent covers and describes the usage of an allogenic melanoma cell lysate (MCL)-pulsed autologous DC vaccine expressing at least one of six MAGE-A antigens overexpressed by the cell line being the source of the lysate. The patent covers the antigen composition used in the generation of MelCancerVac and the claims for producing MelCancerVac. In this patent the antigens are specified to mainly belong to the cancer testis family. The family of antigens is expressed in a wide variety of cancer forms. In the International Preliminary Report on Patentability (IPRP) all claims were determined to be novel and inventive. The patent expiry date is November 29, 2022. This patent has been granted in: Europe, the USA, China, Australia, Singapore, Japan, Russia, Hong Kong. This patent is pending in: Israel and Norway. This patent is owned by the Company and was not licensed from third parties. The patent protection means that the cancer specific antigen-rich lysate obtained from our cell line cannot be commercially made, used, distributed or sold without DanDrit's consent. These patent rights can be usually enforced in a court, which, in most systems, holds the authority to stop patent infringement.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Protocol for generating dendritic cells (2005 DK, 2008 PCT)


	  	  	
This patent covers the generation of dendritic cells based on a blood sample of 200 ml. The patent differs from other DC generating patents by the utilization of reduced temperature and a single blood sample.  DCs exposed to tumor antigens followed by treatment with T(h)1-polarizing differentiation signals have paved the way for the development of DC-based cancer vaccines. Critical parameters for generation of optimal functional clinical grade DCs are a very competitive area. DanDrit has developed a method that covers the generation of immature dendritic cells under reduced temperature settings which by further activation has been shown to give a high yield of homogeneous and fully matured DCs. This patent was filed on December 7, 2006. In the International Preliminary Report on Patentability (IPRP) a large majority of claims were found to be novel and inventive. The patent expiry date is 2032. This patent was granted in 2012 in China, Eurasia, Russia, Europe, Israel, Mexico, Malaysia, New Zealand. This patent is owned by DanDrit and was not licensed from third parties. The patent protection means that the method that DanDrit use to generate dendritic cells cannot be commercially used, distributed or sold without DanDrit's consent.  These patent rights can be usually enforced in a court, which, in most systems, holds the authority to stop patent infringement.

Method for generating tolerogenic dendritic cells employing decreased temperature (2007)


	  	  	
DanDrit has expanded the method of development of mature dendritic cells to also include the generation of regulatory DCs. In addition to DCs used for cancer immunotherapy, DanDrit has developed an additional arm of DCs, namely regulatory/tolerogenic DCs to be used for treatment of various autoimmune diseases such as Type 1 diabetes and Multiple Sclerosis.  This patent was filed on November 13, 2008. Patent pending:  worldwide.  1st Office Action received in Europe August 25, 2010. This patent is owned by the Company and was not licensed from third parties. The patent protection means that the method that DanDrit use to produce tolerogenic dendritic cells cannot be commercially used, distributed or sold without DanDrit's consent.  These patent rights can be usually enforced in a court, which, in most systems, holds the authority to stop patent infringement.


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Micro RNAs as markers of the functional state of a dendritic cell


	  	  	
This patent covers and demonstrates that functionally different DCs carry unique microRNA signatures.  By examining a handful of microRNA profiles one can analyze the function of DC vaccines. This is a valuable addition to other vaccine quality control measures that are currently used in studies that involve DCs.  Critical parameters for assessment of the optimal functional state of DCs and prediction of the vaccine potency of activated DCs have in the past been based on measurements of differentiation surface markers like HLA-DR, CD80, CD83, CD86, and CCR7 and the level of secreted cytokines like interleukin-12p70. However, the level of these markers does not provide a complete picture of the DC phenotype and may be insufficient for prediction of clinical outcome for DC-based therapy. We have identified additional biomarkers by investigating the differential expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) in mature DCs relative to immature DCs. The patent was filed on November 14, 2008.  In the International Preliminary Report on Patentability, a large majority of claims were found to be novel and inventive.  Patent pending: Europe and USA. 1st Office Action received in Europe on August 18, 2010. Follow up action on election restriction received in the USA on October 21, 2010. This patent is owned by the Company and was not licensed from third parties. The patent protection means that the method that DanDrit use to test and release its dendritic cells cannot be commercially  used, distributed or sold without DanDrit's consent.  These patent rights can be usually enforced in a court, which, in most systems, holds the authority to stop patent infringement.

Government Regulation


 



Orphan Drug status for MCV





 


The United States and Europe may designate drugs for relatively small patient populations as orphan drugs. Orphan drug designation does not convey any advantage in, or shorten the duration of, the regulatory review and approval process, but does make the product eligible for orphan drug exclusivity, reduced filing fees and specific tax credits. Generally, if a company receives the first marketing approval for a product with an orphan drug designation in the clinical indication for which it has such designation, the product is entitled to orphan drug exclusivity. Orphan drug exclusivity means that the FDA will not approve another application to market the same drug for the same indication, except in limited circumstances, for a period of seven years in the United States. This exclusivity, however, could block the approval of our proposed product candidates if a competitor obtains marketing approval before us. We plan to apply for orphan drug status for MCV to treat stage IV CRC with NED after surgical resection and chemotherapy if we meet the eligibility criteria. However, note that, even if we obtain orphan drug exclusivity MCV, we may not be able to maintain the status. For example, if a competitive product is shown to be clinically superior to our product, any orphan drug exclusivity we have will not block the approval of such competitive product.





 


Fast Track designation for development of MCV





 


We intend to request fast Track designation for MCV. If a drug is intended for the treatment of a serious or life-threatening condition and the drug demonstrates the potential to address unmet medical needs for this condition, the drug sponsor may apply for FDA Fast Track designation for a particular indication. Marketing applications filed by sponsors of products in Fast Track development may qualify for priority review under the policies and procedures offered by the FDA, but the Fast Track designation does not assure any such qualification or ultimate marketing approval by the FDA. Receipt of Fast Track designation may not result in a faster development process, review or approval compared to drugs considered for approval under conventional FDA procedures. In addition, the FDA may withdraw any Fast Track designation at any time. We may seek Fast Track designation for our vaccine product candidates or any other product candidates, but the FDA may not grant this status to any of our proposed product candidates.





 


Approval for Commercialization





 


MCV and any future product candidates that we will be developing will require approval of the FDA before they can be marketed in the U.S. Although our focus at this time is primarily on the U.S. market, in the future similar approvals will need to be obtained from foreign regulatory agencies before we can market our current and proposed product candidates in other countries.


 


The process for filing and obtaining FDA approval to market therapeutic products is both time-consuming and costly, with no certainty of a successful outcome. The historical failure rate for companies seeking to obtain FDA approval of therapeutic products is high and, with the exception of Dendreon Corp.’s dendritic cell vaccine for the treatment of prostate cancer, no cancer stem cell or dendritic cell-based cancer vaccine has to date been approved by the FDA. This process includes conducting extensive pre-clinical research and clinical testing, which may take longer and cost more than we initially anticipate due to numerous factors, including without limitation, difficulty in securing appropriate centers to conduct trials, difficulty in enrolling patients in conformity with required protocols in a timely manner, unexpected adverse reactions by patients in the trials to our proposed product candidates and changes in the FDA’s requirements for our testing during the course of that testing.

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 



The time required to obtain FDA and other approvals is unpredictable but often can exceed five years following the commencement of clinical trials, depending upon the complexity of the product and other factors. Any analysis we perform of data from preclinical and clinical activities is subject to confirmation and interpretation by regulatory authorities, which could delay, limit or prevent regulatory approval. We may also encounter unexpected delays or increased costs due to a variety of reasons, including new government regulations from future legislation or administrative actions or from changes in FDA policy during the period of product development, clinical trials and FDA regulatory review.


 


Any delay or failure in our clinical trial program and in obtaining required approvals would have a material adverse effect on our ability to generate revenues from the particular product. Furthermore, any regulatory approval to market a product may be subject to limitations on the indicated uses for which we may market the product. These limitations may limit the size of the market for the product.





 


Environmental matters 




 


We are subject to a broad range of federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and regulations which govern, among other things, air emissions, wastewater discharges and the handling, storage disposal and release of wastes and hazardous substances. It is our policy to comply with applicable environmental requirements at all of our facilities. We are also subject to laws, such as the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), that may impose liability retroactively and without fault for releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances at on-site or off-site locations. We are subject to similar requirements in Denmark and other European countries. 


 


Research and Development


 




We currently have one full-time employee working on maintaining our research and development. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 we did not spend any money for research and development.






 


Competition


 


Several companies are trying to capitalize on the growing interest for immunotherapy in the treatment of cancer.


 


Two Directly Competing Companies


 


The figure below outlines the competitive landscape for MCV. Note that colorectal cancer, while providing a large market opportunity (it is the second most killer cancer after lung cancer), offers a more robust competitive landscape than other cancers. In the colorectal cancer space DanDrit faces two main competitors:


 




	  	
●

	
Bavarian Nordic (“BN”): CV-301, BN’s second compound, is in clinical development with advanced colorectal cancer patients


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
Immatics: its second compound is in clinical development in early stage colorectal cancer patients

TABLE OF CONTENTS






 





 


Bavarian Nordic (BAVA.CO) and CV-301


 





 


With its lead vaccine ProstvacTM from Therion Biologics and NCI, Bavarian Nordic (BN) also acquired PanvacTM vaccine. This PANVACTM vaccine failed to prove efficacy in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer who failed gemcitabine. BN is currently focusing its efforts on ProstvacTM for treatment of prostate cancer, currently in Phase III. However, in 2012, BN re-initiated the clinical development of PanvacTM (re-named CV-301).



 





CV-301 is a cancer immunotherapy product candidate incorporating two antigens, CEA and MUC-1, in a viral vector. CV-301 is an off-the-shelf immunotherapy product candidate for the treatment of multiple cancers. It originates from the same poxvirus technology platform as PROSTVACTM. Both PROSTVACTM and CV-301 are prime-boost vaccines sequentially combining two different poxviruses (vaccinia and fowlpox).


 



CV-301 had been studied in different cancers in clinical trials led by the National Cancer Institute. One study was a randomized Phase II trial in patients with metastatic breast cancer. The study enrolled 48 patients to receive CV-301 in combination with docetaxel or docetaxel alone. The primary study endpoint was PFS, while secondary endpoints included overall survival and immunologic correlative studies. A preliminary analysis of the study showed PFS of 6.6 months in the CV-301 group versus 3.8 months among those receiving docetaxel alone. Final study data are pending results from five patients that remained on study at the time of the analysis. Because of its size the study was not designed to reach statistical significance.







 




More directly relevant to DanDrit was the colorectal Phase II study of CV-301 conducted by Morse at Duke University. The objective of the trial was to determine whether one of two vaccines based on dendritic cells and poxvectors encoding CEA and MUC1 would lengthen survival in patients with resected metastases of colorectal cancer. The studied patients were, disease-free after CRC metastasectomy and perioperative chemotherapy (n = 74). They were randomized to injections of autologous DCs modified with PANVAC (DC/PANVAC) or PANVAC with per injection GM-CSF (granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor). Endpoints were recurrence-free survival overall survival, and rate of CEA-specific immune responses. Clinical outcome was compared with that of an unvaccinated, contemporary group of patients who had undergone CRC metastasectomy, received similar perioperative therapy, and would have otherwise been eligible for the study.


 


The recurrence-free survival at two years was similar (47% and 55% for DC/PANVAC and PANVAC/GM-CSF, respectively). At a median follow-up of 35.7 months, there were two of 37 deaths in the DC/PANVAC arm and five of 37 deaths in the PANVAC/GM-CSF arm. The rate and magnitude of T-cell responses against CEA was statistically similar between study arms.

As a group, vaccinated patients had superior survival compared with the contemporary unvaccinated group. Both DC and pox-vector vaccines had similar activity. Survival was longer for vaccinated patients than for a contemporary unvaccinated group.


 


In 2013, Bavarian Nordic expanded its license with the National Cancer Institute (NCI) for CV-301 to include colon cancer. The original collaboration agreement executed in 2011, involved multiple cancers including breast, lung, ovarian and other cancers.


 


Immatics Biotechnologies


 





 


The second direct competitor is Immatics (previously known as Biomira), a German biotech company who currently focuses its clinical efforts on a Phase III in Renal Cell Carinoma for its lead vaccine. However, Immatic also develops a vaccine in colorectal cancer (enter Phase I in 2012). Note that Immatic’s technology is peptide-based rather than a dendritic cell approach and that Immatics is targeting its vaccine toward early stage colorectal cancer rather than resected advanced colorectal cancer like Bavarian and DanDrit. This private German company only discovers and develops tumor-associated peptides for the immunotherapy of cancer. Immatics reports that they raised €53.8million in a Series C financing round to finance a Phase III pivotal trial of their lead product IMA901 which in data reported in June at ASCO demonstrated the potential to confer an overall survival benefit in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma.


 


Other cancer vaccine companies


 


The global cancer vaccines market was worth $3,483.0m in 2010, after increasing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 63.7% during 2006--2010. During 2010--2018, the market is expected to record a CAGR of 12.7%, to reach $9,077.9m by 2018.


 


The following companies (by alphabetical order) are part of the competitive landscape but not direct competitors. They are presented in this plan to illustrate the growing interest in cancer vaccines.

Dr. Jacob Rosenberg. Dr. Jacob Rosenberg currently serves as a director of DanDrit Denmark, a position he has held since 2012. Prior to this role, Dr. Rosenberg served as Chairman of DanDrit Denmark’s board from 2003 to 2009 and Chairman of T-cellic A/S from 2007 to 2008.

During the years 1997-2003 he received 6 honorary research prizes. Professor Rosenberg has overseen DanDrit’s Copenhagen based clinical trials. The Board believes that Dr. Rosenberg is one of the leading experts in research in cancer and dendritic cells and, as a result, that he has a thorough understanding of our company and our technology. Because of his research background, the Board believes that Dr. Rosenberg is uniquely qualified to serve as a director.


 


Aldo Petersen. Aldo Petersen has been chairman of LiqTech International, Inc. since August 2011.

He is a private investor in wind farms in Germany and France, and was also a major investor in Football Club Copenhagen (listed on the Copenhagen Stock Exchange). Mr. Petersen has a B.A. degree in Economics from Copenhagen Business School. The Board believes that Mr. Petersen’s experience as a businessman and his knowledge of the capital markets qualifies him to be a director.


 


Our certificate of incorporation provides for the annual election of directors. At each annual meeting of stockholders, our directors will be elected to serve until their respective successors have been elected and qualified.


 


Family Relationships


 


None of the directors or executive officers has a family relationship as defined in Item 401 of Regulation S-K.


 


Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings


 



To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or executive officers has, during the past 10 years, been involved in any legal proceedings described in subparagraph (f) of Item 401 of Regulation S-K.




 


Director Independence


 


Our Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. Nielsen, Rosenberg and Petersen are independent as that term is defined in the listing standards of the NYSE MKT. In making these determinations, our Board of Directors has concluded that none of our independent directors has an employment, business, family or other relationship which, in the opinion of our Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Our other directors, Dr. Leire and Mr. Wolfe, are not considered independent under these rules because each serves as an executive officer.



 


Insider Participation Concerning Executive Compensation


 






DanDrit’s Board of Directors has historically made all determinations regarding executive officer compensation, including compensation decisions during the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2013.

Audit and Compensation Committee


 





The Board of Directors acts as the audit committee. The Company does not have a qualified financial expert at this time because it has inadequate financial resources at this time to hire such a qualified candidate.

On July 12, 2012, the Company adopted a formal code of ethics statement for senior officers and directors (the “Code of Ethics”) that is designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote ethical conduct and full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable reports that the Company files or submits to the SEC and others.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES


 


General


 


The following is a summary description of our capital stock and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by, the provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, which are filed as exhibits to the registration statement to which this prospectus forms a part.


 



Common Stock


 






Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.0001 per share. As of the date of this prospectus, there were 64 holders of record of our common stock. Holders of our common stock are entitled to such dividends as may be declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available for such purpose, subject to any preferential dividend rights of any then outstanding preferred stock. The shares of common stock are neither redeemable nor convertible. Holders of common stock have no preemptive or subscription rights to purchase any of our securities.


 








All outstanding shares of common stock are of the same class and have equal rights and attributes. Each holder of our common stock is entitled to one vote for each such share outstanding in the holder’s name on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Company. Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. Any other action shall be authorized by a majority of the votes cast except where the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) prescribes a different percentage of votes and/or a different exercise of voting power and except as may be otherwise prescribed by the provisions of the Company’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws. All holders are entitled to share equally in dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the board of directors out of funds legally available. The holders of common stock do not have cumulative or preemptive rights.







 





In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of our common stock are entitled to receive pro rata our assets, which are legally available for distribution, after payments of all debts and other liabilities and subject to the prior rights of any holders of preferred stock then outstanding. All of the outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and non-assessable. The shares of common stock offered by this prospectus will also be fully paid and non-assessable.





 





Preferred Stock


 






Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.0001 per share with designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors of the Company. As of the date of this prospectus, no shares of preferred stock are outstanding.


 






The issuance of preferred stock with certain voting, conversion and/or redemption rights could adversely affect the rights of holders of our common stock, including with respect to voting, dividends and liquidation. Preferred stock could also be issued quickly with terms calculated to delay, defer or prevent a change in control of our company or to make removal of management more difficult. Additionally, the issuance of preferred stock may decrease the market price of our common stock.



 


Dividend Policy


 





The Company has not declared or paid any cash dividends on its common stock and does not intend to declare or pay any cash dividend in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends, if any, is within the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend on the Company’s earnings, if any, its capital requirements and financial condition and such other factors as the Board of Directors may consider.





 


Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans


 





The Board of Directors has adopted the DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc. 2014 Equity Incentive Plan. We have reserved 1,206,000 shares of our common stock for issuance in accordance with the terms of the plan. As of the date of this prospectus, no awards have been made from the plan.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES





 





Section 145 of the DGCL provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with various actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative other than an action by or in the right of the corporation (a derivative action), if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses including attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such actions, and the statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a corporation’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws, agreement, a vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.





 





DanDrit’s Certificate of Incorporation provides that it will indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, as amended from time to time, each person that such section grants us the power to indemnify.





 





The DGCL permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for:





 







	 	
●

	
any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders;


	 	  	  
	 	
●

	
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;


	 	  	  
	 	
●

	
payments of unlawful dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions; or


	 	  	  
	 	
●

	
any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.









 


DanDrit’s Certificate of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, none of our directors will be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. Any repeal or modification of this provision will be prospective only and will not adversely affect any limitation, right or protection of a director of our company existing at the time of such repeal or modification.


 


Delaware law and DanDrit’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws may permit indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”) or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”). Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling DanDrit pursuant to the foregoing provisions, DanDrit has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE


 


A substantial number of shares of our common stock could be sold in the public market after the lapse of the contractual and legal restrictions described below. The sale of a substantial amount of our common stock in the public market could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common stock.


 




As of March 31, 2014, we had an aggregate of 8,040,000 shares of our common stock outstanding, including 185,053 shares of common stock reserved for issuance to the non-consenting shareholders of DanDrit Denmark and deemed issued and outstanding for accounting purposes and 1,206,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc. 2014 Equity Incentive Plan. On February 12, 2014, pursuant to which holders of approximately 97% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of DanDrit Denmark (the “DanDrit Consenting Holders”) exchanged an aggregate of 3,879,624 equity interests of DanDrit Denmark for 5,814,947 shares of DanDrit USA (the “Share Exchange”) and as a result of which Putnam would become the parent of DanDrit Denmark. In accordance with Section 70 of the Danish Companies Act and the Articles of Association of DanDrit Denmark, DanDrit Denmark shareholders who have not consented to the Share Exchange (the “Non-Consenting Shareholders”) and therefore have not exchanged such DanDrit Denmark shareholder’s equity interests in DanDrit Denmark for shares of DanDrit USA, will be entitled to receive the 185,053 shares of common stock of DanDrit USA that each such DanDrit Denmark shareholder would have been entitled to receive if such DanDrit Denmark shareholder had consented to the Share Exchange, up to an aggregate of 185,053 shares of common stock of DanDrit USA. As a result of the Share Exchange, the former shareholders of DanDrit Denmark became the controlling shareholders of the Company. The Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse takeover/recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein DanDrit Denmark is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The capital, share price, and earnings per share amount in these consolidated financial statements for the period prior to the reverse merger were restated to reflect the recapitalization in accordance with the exchange ratio established in the merger.




 


The shares of our common stock issued in the Share Exchange and the related transactions, as well as other outstanding shares of our common stock, our warrants, and the shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of our warrants are, and will be, “restricted securities” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. These restricted securities may be sold in the public market if they are registered or if the sale qualifies for an exemption from registration under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as summarized below; and with respect to those shares of common stock issued pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Regulation S under the Securities Act, in accordance with Regulation S.




 


Lock-Up Agreements


 


Our executive officers, directors and certain stockholders have agreed to a 180-day lock-up with respect to 7,854,947 shares of our outstanding common stock other than certain permitted transfers described in the form of Lock-Up Agreement. Holders of the common stock subject to the Lock-Up Agreement shall also be permitted to exercise options or receive stock through equity awards, and waive any rights to request or demand registration of the common stock.


 



Restrictions on the Use of Rule 144 by Shell Companies or Former Shell Companies


 





Rule 144 is not available for resale of securities issued by any shell companies (other than business combination-related shell companies) or any issuer that has been at any time previously a shell company. The SEC has provided an exception to this prohibition, however, if the following conditions are met:


 







	  	
●

	
the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and materials required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports; and


	  	  	  
	  	
●

	
at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.









 





As a result, none of our stockholders is currently able to sell shares of our common stock in reliance on Rule 144. Assuming we continue to meet the requirements set forth above, Rule 144 will become available to our stockholders one year after the date we file the information required in SEC Form 10. Our stockholders may currently sell their shares of our common stock only pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective under the Securities Act or pursuant to another exemption from registration.

(Restated DanDrit Biotech A/S)

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc. (the restated financial statements of DanDrit Biotech A/S) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related  statements of operations, other comprehensive income, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.


 


We conducted our audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, and audit of its internal controls over financial reporting for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. Our audit included consideration of internal controls over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal controls over financial reporting for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.


 


In our opinion, based on our audit, the financial statements audited by us present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc. (the restated financial statements of DanDrit Biotech A/S) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013, and 2012, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.


 


The accompanying  financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has not yet established profitable operations and has incurred significant losses since its inception.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  Management's plans in regards to these matters are also described in Note 2.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.


 


The financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 are unaudited and we have not preformed any audit procedures since the report dated below.

DANDRIT BIOTECH USA, INC.



(FORMERLY PUTNAM HILLS CORP.)


NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS







NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES



 


Business and Basis of Presentation – DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc. (“DanDrit USA”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”) (formerly Putnam Hills Corp) was originally incorporated in the state of Delaware on January 18, 2011 as a vehicle to pursue a business combination through the acquisition of, or merger with, an operating business.


 


DanDrit BioTech A/S, a Danish Corporation was incorporated on April 1, 2001 (“DanDrit Denmark”).  The Company engages in the research and development, manufacturing and clinical trials of pharmaceutical and biological products for the human treatment of cancer using the dendritic cell technology.


 



Reverse Acquisition - On February 12, 2014, the Company signed and consummated the transactions contemplated by a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Share Exchange Agreement"), by and among DanDrit USA (formerly known as Putnam Hills Corp.), DanDrit Denmark and N.E. Nielsen, as the representative of the shareholders of DanDrit Denmark, pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding equity securities in Dandrit Denmark in exchange for 6,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share of the Company (the “Share Exchange”).  The Share Exchange closed on February 12, 2014 pursuant to which holders of approximately 97% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of DanDrit Denmark (the “DanDrit Consenting Holders”) exchanged an aggregate of 3,879,624 equity interests of DanDrit Denmark for 5,814,947 shares of DanDrit USA. As a result of the closing of the Share Exchange the Company became the parent of DanDrit Denmark. In accordance with Section 70 of the Danish Companies Act and the Articles of Association of DanDrit Denmark, DanDrit Denmark shareholders who have not consented to the Share Exchange (the “Non-Consenting Shareholders”) and therefore have not exchanged such DanDrit Denmark shareholder’s equity interests in DanDrit Denmark for shares of DanDrit USA, are entitled to receive up to an aggregate of 185,053 shares of common stock of DanDrit USA in exchange for the DanDrit Denmark equity interests by such Non-Consenting Shareholders. As a result of the Share Exchange, the former shareholders of Dandrit Denmark became the controlling shareholders of the Company.


 




Restatement - The Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse takeover/recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein Dandrit Denmark is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The capital, share price, and earnings per share amount in these consolidated financial statements for the period prior to the reverse merger were restated to reflect the recapitalization in accordance with the exchange ratio established in the merger.






 


Upon the closing of the Share Exchange, DanDrit USA and the its majority shareholder immediately prior to the closing agreed to cancel up to 4,400,000 shares of our common stock.  In addition, following the closing of the Share Exchange, DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company merged with and into the Company, thereby changing the Company’s name to “DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc.”







 


Consolidation  - For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the DanDrit Denmark and the accounts and operations of DanDrit USA, Inc from February the date of acquisition of February 12, 2014 through March 31, 2014.  For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the three months ended March 31, 2013, the consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the DanDrit Denmark with the capital, share price, and earnings per share amount in these consolidated financial statements restated to reflect the recapitalization in accordance with the exchange ratio established in the merger. All material inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in the consolidation.









On December 16, 2013, the DanDrit Denmark sold, for $1.00, the wholly-owned dormant subsidiary DanDrit Corporation PTE. LTD.  a Singapore limited liability company incorporated on July 1, 2008. As this Singapore entity was a dormant subsidiary the financial statements include the $1 proceeds and gain on sale of the former subsidiary.







Functional Currency / Foreign currency translation — The functional currency of DanDrit USA, Inc. is the U.S. Dollar.  The functional currency of DanDrit Biotech A/S is the Danish Kroner (“DKK”).  The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. Dollar for the purpose of these financial statements. The Company’s balance sheet accounts are translated into U.S. dollars at the period-end exchange rates and all revenue and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates prevailing during the years 2013 and 2012 and the period ending March 31, 2014. Translation gains and losses are deferred and accumulated as a component of other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the statement of operations as incurred.


 



Cash and Cash Equivalents — The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had no balances held in financial institutions in the United States in excess of federally insured amounts at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 and 2012.







Property and Equipment — Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized, upon being placed in service. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed for financial statement purposes on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets which range from four to six years (See Note 3).







Intangible Assets — The Company accounts for definite life intangible assets, including patents, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board, (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification, (“ASC”) Topic 350, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” and amortized the patents on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of twenty years. Costs incurred in relation to patent applications are capitalized cost and amortized over the estimated useful life of the patent. If it is determined that a patent will not be issued, the related remaining patent application costs are charged to expense.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS







NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)







Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - Long-lived assets, such as property, plant, and equipment and patents are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed of significantly before the end of its estimated useful life.







Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and would no longer be depreciated.  The depreciable basis of assets that are impaired and continue in use is their respective fair values.


 


Revenue Recognition and Sales  — The Company’s sales of its MCV colorectal cancer  vaccine have been limited to a compassionate use basis in Singapore after stage IIA trials and is not approved for current sale for any other use or location. The Company's accounts for revenue recognition in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (SAB 101), and FASB ASC 605 Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue when rights and risk of ownership have passed to the customer, when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, product has been shipped or delivered to the customer, the price and terms are finalized, and collections of resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Products are primarily shipped FOB shipping point at which time title passes to the customer.







Value Added Tax - In Denmark, Value Added Tax (“VAT”) of 25% of the invoice amount is collected in respect of the sales of goods on behalf of tax authorities. The VAT collected is not revenue of the Company; instead, the amount is recorded as a liability on the balance sheet until such VAT is paid to the authorities. VAT of 25% is also paid to Danish and EU vendors on invoices these amounts are refundable from the respective governmental authority and recorded as other receivables in the accompanying financial statements.







Research and Development Cost — The Company expenses research and development costs for the development of new products as incurred and is included in operating expense. There was no research and development costs for the three month period ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 and years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.




 


Income Taxes — The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740 Accounting for Income Taxes. This statement requires an asset and liability approach for accounting for income taxes.







Loss Per Share — The Company calculates earnings /(loss) per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260 Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per common share (EPS) are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per common share are based on shares outstanding (computed as under basic EPS) and potentially dilutive common shares. Potential common shares included in the diluted earnings per share calculation include in-the-money stock options that have been granted but have not been exercised.







Derivatives - We generally do not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow, market or foreign-currency risks. However, we have entered into certain other financial instruments and contracts, such as debt financing arrangements with features that are either (i) not afforded equity classification, (ii) embody risks not clearly and closely related to host contracts, or (iii) may be net-cash settled by the counterparty. These instruments are required to be carried as derivative liabilities, at fair value.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS







NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)







We estimate fair values of all derivative instruments, such as embedded conversion features utilizing Level 3 inputs (defined below in Note 1: Fair Value of Financial Instruments). We use the Black-Scholes option valuation technique because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including trading volatility, estimated terms and risk free rates) necessary to fair value these instruments. Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective inputs that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in our market price of our common stock, which have historically had high volatility. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair value, our income will reflect the volatility in these estimate and assumption changes.







We report our derivative liabilities at fair value.







Fair Value of Financial Instruments — The Company accounts for fair value measurements for financial assets and financial liabilities in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements”. The authoritative guidance, which, among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as the exit price, representing the amount that would either be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;













	  	
●

	
Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and













	  	
●

	
Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.







 


Unless otherwise disclosed, the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, investments, accounts payable, accrued expenses, capital lease obligations and notes payable approximates their recorded values due to their short-term maturities.







Accounting Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimated.







Recent Accounting Pronouncements — Recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.








Reclassification - The financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2013 and 2012 have been reclassified to conform to the headings and classifications used in the March 31, 2014 financial statements.

NOTE 2 — GOING CONCERN







The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.  However, the Company has incurred significant losses and has not yet been successful in establishing profitable operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. In this regard, management plans to mitigate this doubt by raising additional funds through debt and/or equity offerings and by substantially increasing sales once approval for the Company’s product is obtained.  There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving profitable operations.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

In accordance with prevailing accounting guidance, the Company is required to recognize and disclose any income tax uncertainties. The guidance provides a two-step approach to recognize and disclose any income tax uncertainties. The guidance provides a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring tax benefits and liabilities when realization of the tax position is uncertain. The first step is to determine whether the tax position meet the more-likely-than-not condition for recognition and the second step is to determine the amount to be recognized based on the cumulative probability that exceeds 50%. The amount of and ultimate realization of the benefits from the deferred tax assets for income tax purposes is dependent, in part, upon the tax laws in effect, the Company’s future earnings, and other future events, the effects of which can be difficult to determine and can only be estimated. Management estimates that it is more likely than not that the Company will not generate adequate net profits to use the deferred tax assets; and consequently, a valuation allowance was recorded for all deferred tax assets.

NOTE 11 — STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY


 



Common Stock — The Company has 100,000,000 authorized shares of common stock $0.0001.  As of March 31, 2014 there were 8,040,000 shares issued and outstanding, including 185,053 shares of common stock reserved for issuance to the non-consenting shareholders of DanDrit Denmark and deemed issued and outstanding for accounting purposes.


 


Share Exchange Agreement/Reverse Acquisition - On February 12, 2014, the Company signed and consummated the transactions contemplated by a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Share Exchange Agreement"), by and among DanDrit USA (formerly known as Putnam Hills Corp.), DanDrit Denmark and N.E. Nielsen, as the representative of the shareholders of DanDrit Denmark, pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding equity securities in Dandrit Denmark in exchange for 6,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share of the Company (the “Share Exchange”).  The Share Exchange closed on February 12, 2014 pursuant to which holders of approximately 97% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of DanDrit Denmark (the “DanDrit Consenting Holders”) exchanged an aggregate of 3,879,624 equity interests of DanDrit Denmark for 5,814,947 shares of DanDrit USA. As a result of the closing of the Share Exchange the Company became the parent of DanDrit Denmark.  In accordance with Section 70 of the Danish Companies Act and the Articles of Association of DanDrit Denmark, DanDrit Denmark shareholders who have not consented to the Share Exchange (the “Non-Consenting Shareholders”) and therefore have not exchanged such DanDrit Denmark shareholder’s equity interests in DanDrit Denmark for shares of DanDrit USA, are entitled to receive up to an aggregate of 185,053 shares of common stock of DanDrit USA in exchange for the DanDrit Denmark equity interests owned by such Non-Consenting Shareholders. As a result of the Share Exchange, the former shareholders of Dandrit Denmark became the controlling shareholders of the Company. The Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse takeover/recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein Dandrit Denmark is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The capital, share price, and earnings per share amount in these consolidated financial statements for the period prior to the reverse merger were restated to reflect the recapitalization in accordance with the exchange ratio established in the merger.







On February 11, 2014 1,400,000 and 40,000 common shares of the Company were issued for consulting and legal services valued at $5 per share or $7,000,000 and $200,000, respectively. These shares were issued by the Company prior to the reverse acquisition of DanDrit Denmark and the $7,200,000 was closed out to additional paid in capital in connection with the recapitalization of the Subsidiary.


 


On February 12, 2014, the Company’s majority shareholder cancelled 4,400,000 shares of common stock.







Upon the closing of the Share Exchange, the Company and the its majority shareholder immediately prior to the closing agreed to cancel up to 4,400,000 shares of our common stock.  In addition, following the closing of the Share Exchange, DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company merged with and into the Company, thereby changing the Company’s name to “DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc.”







On December 16, 2013, DanDrit Denmark issued 174,578 shares of its common stock which were exchanged for 261,665 shares of common stock of the Company upon the closing of the Share Exchange in payment of a $1,500,000 convertible bond, $179,612 of accrued interest and the remaining $673,736 of derivative liability associated with the conversion feature of the bond.







On December 16, 2013, DanDrit Denmark issued 96,288 shares of its common stock which were exchanged for 144,321 shares of common stock of the Company upon the closing of the Share Exchange in payment of $926,386 of notes payable and related accrued interest payable to DKTI.







On December 16, 2013, DanDrit Denmark issued 184,051 shares of its common stock which were exchanged for 275,863 shares of common stock of the Company upon the closing of the Share Exchange in payment of $1,770,757 of notes payable and related accrued interest payable to Sune Olsen Holdings ApS and Advance Biotech Invest AS.







Voting- Holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on each matter submitted to a vote of stockholders, including the election of directors, and do not have any right to cumulate votes in the election of directors.







 Dividends- Holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends as our Board of Directors from time to time may declare out of funds legally available.







 Liquidation Rights- In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of affairs of the Company, after payment of all of our debts and liabilities, the holders of the Company’s common stock will be entitled to share ratably in the distribution of any of our remaining assets.


 


Other Matters- Holders of the Company’s common stock have no conversion, preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are no redemption rights or sinking fund provisions with respect to the common stock. All of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock on the date of this report are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

NOTE 12 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES 


 




Shares held for non-consenting shareholders – In connection with the Share Exchange agreement certain shareholders of Dandrit Denmark  had not been identified or did not consent to the exchange of shares.  In accordance with Section 70 of the Danish Companies Act and the Articles of Association of DanDrit Denmark, the Non-Consenting Shareholders that did not exchange the DanDrit Denmark equity interests owned by such Non-Consenting Shareholders for shares of the Company, will be entitled to receive up to 185,053 shares of common stock of the Company that each such Non-Consenting Shareholder would have been entitled to receive if such shareholder had consented to the Share Exchange. The 185,053 shares have been reflected as issued and outstanding in the accompanying financial statements.


 






Patient Name Use Program - On December 16, 2013, DanDrit Biotech A/S entered into an agreement with MyTomorrows (MT), a Dutch company, regarding a Patient Name Use Program (PNU) for the Company’s MelCancerVac (MCV).  This program will allow DanDrit Biotech A/S to sell MCV for a year of treatment (10 vaccines) to cancer patients through MT.  MT offers a worldwide online platform providing access to non-registered medicines for patients with life threatening diseases. MT is a turnkey solution and will be in charge of regulatory, recruitment, logistics, and pharmacovigilance.   The Company will pay MT a royalty on a country to country basis for 20 years on MCV sales sold under the agreement. Either party may terminate the agreement with 180 day written notice.







Food and Drug Administration (FDA) - The FDA has extensive regulatory authority over biopharmaceutical products (drugs and biological products), manufacturing protocols and procedures and the facilities in which they will be manufactured. Any new bioproduct intended for use in humans is subject to rigorous testing requirements imposed by the FDA with respect to product efficacy and safety, possible toxicity and side effects. FDA approval for the use of new bioproducts (which can never be assured) requires several rounds of extensive preclinical testing and clinical investigations conducted by the sponsoring pharmaceutical company prior to sale and use of the product. At each stage, the approvals granted by the FDA include the manufacturing process utilized to produce the product. Accordingly, the Company’s cell systems used for the production of therapeutic or biotherapeutic products are subject to significant regulation by the FDA under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, as amended.







Product liability -The contract production services for therapeutic products offered exposes an inherent risk of liability as biotherapeutic substances manufactured, at the request and to the specifications of customers, could foreseeably cause adverse effects. The Company seeks to obtain agreements from contract production customers indemnifying and defending the Company from any potential liability arising from such risk. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be successful in obtaining such agreements in the future or that such indemnification agreements will adequately protect the Company against potential claims relating to such contract production services. The Company may also be exposed to potential product liability claims by users of its products. A successful partial or completely uninsured claim against the Company could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations.







Employment Agreements -The Company and its Subsidiary have employment agreements with officers of the Company.







Contingencies - The Company is from time to time involved in routine legal and administrative proceedings and claims of various types.  While any proceedings or claim contains an element of uncertainty, management does not expect a material impact on our results of operations or financial position.







During 2013, the Danish law firm Horten made a claim of DKK 184,144 ($33,421), including accrued interest, against DanDrit Biotech A/S related to services performed for a former shareholder who was selling his shares.  DanDrit Biotech A/S did not engage Horten nor did the Company request the services of Horten.  Horten submitted the invoices only after Horten went into bankruptcy. Management intends to vigorously defend against any claims made by Horton.







NOTE 13 — DISPOSITION


 



On December 16, 2013, DanDrit Denmark sold its dormant Singapore subsidiary, DanDrit Corporation PTE, LTD, for $1 and the accompanying financial statements of the Company include the $1 proceeds and gain on sale of the former subsidiary.







NOTE 14 — SUBSEQUENT EVENT


 


On April 29, 2014, the terms of the loan with Paseco ApS were amended to provide that the Company may extend the term of the loan for 1 year by giving Paseco written notice by December 31, 2014.  Per the terms of the amendment, should the Company extend the notes, the interest rate will increase to 7.00% per annum.


 



DanDrit Denmark received a loan commitment on May 2, 2014 for 2,000,000 DKK ($36,868) from Paseco ApS, a shareholder of the Company, payable by February 1, 2015.  The Company has an option to extend the loan for one year by giving notice to Paseco by December 31, 2014 whereby the interest rate would increase to 7.00% per annum.

DANDRIT BIOTECH USA, INC.


 






Up to 40,000 Shares of Common Stock









 


This registration statement of DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc. (the “Company”) and the prospectus contained herein register the resale (the “Resale”) of an aggregate of 40,000 shares of our common stock (the “Resale Shares”) owned by one (1) selling security holder (the “Security Holder”) described more fully herein.


 


The Security Holder is offering the Resale Shares of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) pursuant to this prospectus, and the registration statement of which it is a part. The Security Holder will receive all of the proceeds from the sale of the Resale Shares and we will receive none of those proceeds. The Security Holder is offering our Common Stock at an initial price of $5.00 until and unless our shares are traded on a national securities exchange or quoted on the OTCBB or OTCQB markets (which we can provide no assurance will be accomplished) and thereafter at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices.


 


The Security Holder and intermediaries through whom the Resale Shares are sold may be deemed “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with respect to the Resale Shares offered hereby, and any profits realized or commissions received may be deemed underwriting compensation.


 



Prior to the Resale, which shall be commenced upon the expiration of the lock-up period as described in the Plan of Distribution, we have an offering (the “Public Offering”) of our Common Stock that will have a dilutive effect on any purchaser of Common Stock under this prospectus and the registration statement of which it is a part. We are conducting an offering pursuant to another prospectus (the “Public Offering Prospectus”), which registers the sale by the Company of up to 2,400,000 shares (the “Public Offering Shares”) of our Common Stock, which will be sold by Sunrise Securities Corp. and The Benchmark Company, LLC (each a “Placement Agent” and, collectively, the “Placement Agents”). The Placement Agents are not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of securities but will use their best efforts to sell the Public Offering Shares. If we sell all of the Public Offering Shares we are offering, we will pay to the Placement Agents up to $840,000, or 7%, of the gross proceeds received in the Public Offering; provided, however, that the Placement Agents will only receive commissions based on the gross proceeds raised from investors introduced to the Company by the Placement Agents. In addition, we will pay accountable expenses of up to $120,000 or 1% of the gross proceeds received in the Public Offering. We have also agreed to reimburse the Placement Agent for reasonable fees and expenses of counsel up to an aggregate amount of $75,000 in connection with the Public Offering.  The sales of the Public Offering Shares are not covered by this prospectus. As such, there are a total of 3,182,252 shares of our Common Stock registered for sale or resale under this and the other prospectus referred to above, although there is no guarantee that all of the shares will be sold or resold.


 









We are an “emerging growth company” under the federal securities laws and will have the option to use reduced public company reporting requirements. Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should review carefully the risks and uncertainties described under the heading “Risk Factors” beginning on page 7 of this prospectus, and under similar headings in any amendments or supplements to this prospectus.




 


Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.


 


The date of this prospectus is                    , 2014.

SHARES REGISTERED FOR RESALE


 




As part of this prospectus, we are registering 40,000 shares of Common Stock for resale, which are subject to a 180 day lock-up for sales into the public market. The shares described in the following table consist of shares of Common Stock that were issued in connection with the Share Exchange. A discussion of the material terms of this transaction are included in the subsection of this prospectus titled “Share Exchange” under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” The Company, by agreement, granted the Security Holder the right to have the Security Holder’s Common Stock registered in the event that the Company filed an initial registration statement for the sale of its securities to the public.


 




Concurrently with the filing of this Resale Prospectus, we are filing the Public Offering Prospectus for an initial public offering of our Common Stock. As a result, we became obligated to register the Security Holder’s shares for resale under the same registration statement.


 


The Security Holder does not have, nor within the past three years has the Security Holder had, any position, office or other material relationship with us or any of our predecessors or affiliates other than as described in the section of this prospectus titled “Related Party Transactions” and as a result of the ownership of our securities.


 



The following table provides certain information with respect to the Security Holder’s ownership of our securities as of July 1, 2014, the total number of securities the Security Holder may distribute under this prospectus from time to time, and the number of securities the Security Holder will own thereafter assuming no other acquisitions or dispositions of our securities. The Security Holder may distribute all, some or none of their securities, thus we have no way of determining the number of securities the Security Holder will hold after the Resale. Therefore, we have prepared the table below on the assumption that the Security Holder will sell all shares covered by this prospectus.


 




The Security Holder may dividend or distribute their shares from time to time to their shareholders or affiliates. The Security Holder may also transfer shares they own by gift, and upon any such transfer the donee would have the same right of resale as the Security Holder.


 


See our discussion titled “Plan of Distribution” for further information regarding the Security Holder’s method of distribution of these shares.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION








Lock-Up Agreements


 





The Security Holder, counsel to the Placement Agents in connection with the Public Offering, acquired the Resale Shares on February 12, 2014 upon the closing of the Share Exchange, which shares have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are, therefore, subject to a 180-day lockup pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(g)(1). Pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(g)(1), the Resale Shares shall not be sold during the Public Offering, or sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, or hypothecated, or be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put, or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the date of effectiveness or commencement of sales of the Public Offering, subject to certain exceptions set forth in FINRA Rule 5110(g)(2).




 


We and our officers, directors, and certain existing stockholders, have agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to offer, issue, sell, contract to sell, encumber, grant any option for the sale of or otherwise dispose of any shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of our common stock after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part without the prior written consent of Sunrise Securities Corp. The lock-up period is for 180 days beginning as of the filing date of the last amendment to the registration statement of which this prospective is a part that is declared effective. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the lock-up period shall not apply, and the parties may transfer the shares in the transactions described in clauses (i) through (vi) below as follows:


 









	  	
(i)

	
as a bona fide gift or gifts;


	  	
(ii)

(iii)

	
to the transferring party and/or any member of the immediate family of the transferring party from or by a grantor retained (or like-kind) annuity trust which exists as of the date hereof and was established for the direct or indirect benefit of the transferring party and/or any member of the immediate family of the transferring party pursuant to the terms of such trust


	  	
(iv)

	
if the transferring party is a corporation, partnership or other business entity (A) to another corporation, partnership or other business entity that is an affiliate (as defined under Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act) of the transferring party or (B) any distribution or dividend to equity holders of the transferring party as part of a distribution or dividend by the transferring party (including upon the liquidation and dissolution of the transferring party pursuant to a plan of liquidation approved by the transferring party 's equity holders), or if the transferring party is a trust, to a grantor or beneficiary of the trust;


	  	
(v)

	
in the event of a default under a pledge which exists as of the date hereof as security for a margin or loan account pursuant to the terms of such account;

pursuant  to any 10b5-l trading plans in effect as of the date of the Offering; or


	  	
(vii)

	
with the prior written consent of Sunrise Securities Corp., one of the Placement Agents.









 










For purposes of this lock-up agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin.


 


Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, during the lock-up period, the transferring party may sell shares of common stock of DanDrit on the open market following the consummation of the offering if and only if (i) such sales are not required to be reported in any public report or filing with the Securities Exchange Commission, or otherwise and (ii) the transferring party does not otherwise voluntarily effect any public filing or report regarding such sales.


 


Resale








Following the expiration of the lock-up period, the Security Holder and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of Common Stock on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, Nasdaq Capital Market or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. These individuals may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:






 




	  	
●

	
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;


	  	
●

	
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;


	  	
●

	
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;


	  	
●

	
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;


	  	
●

	
privately negotiated transactions;


	  	
●

	
settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part;


	  	
●

	
broker-dealers may agree with the selling security holder to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;


	  	
●

	
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;


	  	
●

	
a combination of any such methods of sale; or


	  	
●

	
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.









 


Each Security Holder may distribute the shares of which it is the owner by means of a dividend or other form of distribution, including in connection with a declaration of a dividend or distribution, reorganization, combination, consolidation and dissolution.


 


The Security Holder may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.


 



Broker-dealers engaged by any selling Security Holder may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling Security Holder (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but the maximum amount of compensation to be received by any participating FINRA member may not exceed 8%. We are required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the Resale Shares.


 


Since the Security Holder may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act, the Security Holder will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act including Rule 172 thereunder. There is no underwriter or single coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the Resale Shares by the Security Holder.

LEGAL MATTERS


 


Validity of the securities offered by this prospectus will be passed upon for us by Richardson & Patel, LLP, New York, New York.


 


CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE


 


Putnam historically retained Raich Ende Malter & Co. LLP (“Raich”) as its principal accountant. In connection with the closing of the Share Exchange, we terminated Raich and retained Gregory & Associates, LLC (“Gregory”) as our principal accountant. Our Board of Directors approved the change.


 


Raich’s reports on the financial statements for the years ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 included in the Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2013 as filed with the SEC did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, except that their reports included disclosure of uncertainty regarding Putnam’s ability to continue as a going concern.


 


From inception through February 14, 2014, Putnam had no disagreements with Raich on matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure. Putnam had not consulted with Gregory on any matter prior to the Share Exchange.


 


We have authorized Raich to respond fully to the inquiries of Gregory concerning any matters discussed above. We have provided Raich with a copy of the above statements. We have requested that Raich furnish us with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether Raich agrees with the above statements and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of such letter from Raich is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

	Item 14.     Indemnification of Directors and Officers





 



Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with various actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative other than an action by or in the right of the corporation, a derivative action, if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses including attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such actions, and the statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a corporation’s certificate of incorporation, bylaws, agreement, a vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.





 





DanDrit’s Certificate of Incorporation provides that it will indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, as amended from time to time, each person that such section grants us the power to indemnify.





 





The DGCL permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for:





 







	  	
●

	
any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders;


	  	
●

	
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;


	  	
●

	
payments of unlawful dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions; or


	  	
●

	
any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.









 





DanDrit’s Certificate of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, none of our directors will be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. Any repeal or modification of this provision will be prospective only and will not adversely affect any limitation, right or protection of a director of our company existing at the time of such repeal or modification.

	Item 15.      Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities





 


On May 26, 2011, the Company issued an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock to NLBDIT 2010 Services, LLC (“NLBDIT Services”) for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in that certain common stock purchase agreement (the “NLBDIT Services CSPA”). The Low Trust owns 100% of the outstanding membership interests of NLBDIT Services and may be deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock held of record by NLBDIT Services. Nathan Low, a principal of our majority shareholder prior to the Share Exchange, is the family trustee of the Low Trust and has voting and dispositive control over any securities owned of record or beneficially by the Low Trust. Therefore, Mr. Low may be deemed to beneficially own the shares of Common Stock held of record by NLBDIT Services and beneficially by the Low Trust. The Company issued these shares of Common Stock under the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.


 


On December 1, 2011 DanDrit Denmark borrowed $1,500,000 and issued 6% convertible bonds. The bonds may not be converted during the four weeks following the publication of the annual report. The bond may not be repaid until the bonds expiration on November 30, 2014. The bonds shall not accrue interest after expiration. The bonds and related accrued interest are convertible into common share of the Company at an initial rate of $9.58 per common share.



 


Service Issuances








On February 11, 2014 the Company issued a total of 40,000 shares of its common stock to its legal counsel in consideration for legal services in connection with the filing of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.








On February 11, 2014 the Company entered into that certain Consulting Agreement with Paseco ApS (the “Consultant”), pursuant to which the Company issued 1,400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to certain designees of the Consultant in consideration of advisory and consulting services provided by the Consultant in connection with the Share Exchange and the filing of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.


 






Share Exchange


 




On February 12, 2014, the Company signed and consummated the transactions contemplated by a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Share Exchange Agreement"), by and among DanDrit USA (formerly known as Putnam Hills Corp.),


 










DanDrit Denmark and N.E. Nielsen, as the representative of the shareholders of DanDrit Denmark, pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding equity securities in Dandrit Denmark in exchange for 6,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share of the Company (the “Share Exchange”).  The Share Exchange closed on February 12, 2014 pursuant to which holders of approximately 97% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of DanDrit Denmark (the “DanDrit Consenting Holders”) exchanged an aggregate of 3,879,624 equity interests of DanDrit Denmark for 5,814,947 shares of DanDrit USA. As a result of the closing of the Share Exchange the Company became the parent of DanDrit Denmark.  In accordance with Section 70 of the Danish Companies Act and the Articles of Association of DanDrit Denmark, DanDrit Denmark shareholders who have not consented to the Share Exchange (the “Non-Consenting Shareholders”) and therefore have not exchanged such DanDrit Denmark shareholder’s equity interests in DanDrit Denmark for shares of DanDrit USA, are entitled to receive up to an aggregate of 185,053 shares of common stock of DanDrit USA in exchange for the DanDrit Denmark equity interests owned by such Non-Consenting Shareholders. As a result of the Share Exchange, the former shareholders of Dandrit Denmark became the controlling shareholders of the Company. The Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse takeover/recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein Dandrit Denmark is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The capital, share price, and earnings per share amount in these consolidated financial statements for the period prior to the reverse merger were restated to reflect the recapitalization in accordance with the exchange ratio established in the merger.


 











Upon the closing of the Share Exchange, the Company and the its majority shareholder immediately prior to the closing agreed to cancel up to 4,400,000 share of common stock. In addition, following the closing of the Share Exchange, the wholly owned subsidiary of the company formed solely for the purposes of changing the company’s name, Dandrit Biotech USA, Inc., merged with and into the company and the company adopted the name of its wholly owned subsidiary “DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc.”


 




    As a result of the Share Exchange, we changed our management and reconstituted our board of directors. As of the effective time of the Share Exchange, Samir Masri, the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary and sole director of Putnam resigned as the sole officer and director of the company and appointed NE Nielsen, Dr. Jacob Rosenberg, Dr. Eric Leire, Aldo Petersen and Robert E. Wolfe as directors of Putnam, and Dr. Eric Leire as Chief Executive Officer and President and Mr. Wolfe as Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary.


 



   We believe that the above issuances of securities were exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act or Regulation S promulgated under the Act in that the securities were offered and sold to accredited investors or foreign persons and the Company did not engage in any general advertisement, general solicitation or directed selling efforts in connection with the offering of the securities.

Item 17. Undertakings


 


(1) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted as to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions described in Item 14, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.


 


The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:


 


(2) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:


 


(i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;


 


(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increases or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;


 


(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.


 


(3) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.


 


(4) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.


 


(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A (§230.430A of this chapter), shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.


 



(6) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities:




 


The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser: (i) any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; (ii) any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant; (iii) the portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and (iv) any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.


 


(7) To provide to the underwriter at the closing specified in the underwriting agreements, certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.


 




(8) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b) (1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.


 


(9) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
