Item 8.01. Other Events.

On December 12, 2016, the Company announced the first several patients have been treated in the Company’s Phase 3 clinical trial with PRO 140 as a single-agent maintenance therapy in virally suppressed subjects with HIV.

This multicenter, open-label trial will enroll 300 patients prequalified with CCR5-tropic HIV-1 infection who are clinically stable on standard-of-care highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). The objective of the monotherapy trial is to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of PRO 140 as a long-acting, single-agent maintenance therapy for the chronic suppression of HIV. Patients enrolled in the trial will be shifted from daily HAART regimens to weekly PRO 140 subcutaneous injections for 48 weeks.
