Item 8.01 Other Events
 
Advaxis, Inc. (the “Company”) has been informed that its grant application filed with Cancer Research UK, a leading cancer charity in the UK, for the use of ADXS11-001 in the treatment of head and neck cancer, in collaboration with investigators from Aintree Hospital (Liverpool), The Royal Marsden Hospital (London), and Cardiff University, although well received by the New Agents Committee, was not prioritized for funding at the present time. Given the level of interest in the proposal, the New Agents Committee will contact the Company should this situation change.
