Our commentary and responses to your questions may contain
forward-looking statements, including comments concerning clinical
trials and product development programs, evaluation of potential
opportunities, the level of corporate expenditures, the assessment of
Inovio’s technology by potential corporate partners, capital market
conditions, timing of events, cash consumption, and other information
concerning factors that could cause actual results to differ materially
from those set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2016, our Form 10-Q for the period ended June
30, 2017, and other regulatory filings from time to time.

HPV-Related Cervical HSIL Phase 3 Program
• VGX-3100: Targets HPV 16/18
subtypes; E6/E7 oncogenes
• Treats high-grade squamous
intraepithelial lesions (HSIL)
• Consists of two studies in parallel:
• REVEAL I (primary) n=198
• REVEAL II (confirmatory) n=198
• Randomized (2:1), double-blind,
placebo-controlled
• Dosing: month 0, 1, 3 (as in P2b)
• Primary endpoint: month 9
(as in P2b)
• REVEAL1: Study follow-up through
week 88 (as in P2b)
• REVEAL 2: Study follow-up through
week 40
• Report data from both studies in 2020
8
Primary Endpoint
• Regression of HSIL (CIN2/3)
AND clearance of HPV
16/18 in the cervix
Secondary Endpoints
• Safety/tolerability
• Regression of HSIL
• Virologic clearance of HPV-
16 and/or HPV-18
• Non-progression to cancer
• Clearance of HPV from non-
cervical anatomic locations
VGX-3100 has the potential to be the first treatment for HPV infection of the
cervix and the first non-surgical treatment for pre-cancerous cervical lesions.
Phase 2b Study Primary and Secondary Efficacy Endpoints Met
T Cell Responses Measured in Blood
• Efficacy correlates to immune responses
• PP and mITT p-values equal

Rationale for Combinations in Immuno-Oncology:
Turning “Cold” Tumors to “Hot” Tumors
Tumor infiltration of antigen-specific, functional
CD8+ T cells may prime patients for treatment with
checkpoint inhibitors and increase response rates
10
Checkpoint
combinations
• Improved response
rates
• Significantly
increased toxicity &
discontinuations
Checkpoint
monotherapies
• Durable anti-tumor benefit
• Low response rates; ~20% in most tumors
Checkpoints
combined with
Inovio cancer
vaccines
• Increase anti-tumor
benefit, without
adding toxicity
• Clinical studies
planned for 2017
- MEDI0457 with
MedImmune
- INO-5401 with
Regeneron and
Genentech
MEDI0457 (licensed out to MedImmune)
• Metastatic HPV-related squamous cell carcinoma of the head & neck (SCCHN)with persistent or recurrent disease after chemotherapy treatment.
• Combination with durvalumab (IMFINZI™) PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor
• Phase 1/2 open label study: safety, immunological impact, objective response rate,progression-free survival and overall survival
• ~ 50 subjects. Enrolling.
INO-5401 (combination of 3 tumor-associated antigens: hTERT, PSMA, WT1)
• Advanced unresectable or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (bladder cancer)
• Combination with atezolizumab (TECENTRIQ®) PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor
• Phase 1b/2 open-label trial: safety, immune response and clinical efficacy
• ~ 80 patients; ~ 60 will be PD-1/PDL-1 refractory patients. Enrolling.
INO-5401
• Newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme (GBM)
• Combination with REGN2810 PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor
• Phase 1b/2a open label trial: safety, tolerability, immunological impact, progression-free survivaland overall survival
• ~50 patients. Enrolling.

• On February 13, 2017, Inovio entered into a Collaboration and License Agreement
with ApolloBio Corporation
• ApolloBio to receive exclusive rights to VGX-3100 within Greater China (China, Hong King, Macao, Taiwan)
• Potential inclusion of The Republic of Korea within three years of the Effective Date
• Inovio to receive upfront cash payment of $15M(1)
• Inovio to further receive up to $20M based upon achievement of VGX-3100 regulatory milestones (US,
China, Korea), and double digit royalties on all net sales of VGX-3100 within the licensed territory
• Under a separate Stock Purchase Agreement, ApolloBio to purchase $35M(2) of
Inovio common stock
• ApolloBio will pay $8.20 per share, which is based upon the 30 trading day volume weighted average price
encompassing a period prior to and following FDA’s lifting of the VGX-3100 clinical hold
• It is anticipated to close during the second half of 2017
• Both agreements are subject to closing conditions including the final approval of
ApolloBio’s Board of Directors and shareholders, as well as regulatory and currency
approvals required by The People’s Republic of China
30
(1) $12M of the $15M was tied to the FDA’s lifting of the VGX-3100 Phase 3 pre-initiation clinical hold. The clinical hold was
lifted on June 6th 2017.
(2) The amount may potentially be less than $35M, such that ApolloBio would not become the largest shareholder of Inovio.

Emerging Infectious Disease Vaccine Opportunities
• Inovio DNA vaccine platform demonstrates rapid design, manufacturing,
and clinical development of products for emerging diseases
• Commercialization drivers
• Grants, such as DARPA $45M Ebola award, Gates $8.8M, IVI grant for MERS
• Priority review voucher potential
• Stockpiling contracts: scale manufacturing
• Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI)
• “The coalition will also develop so-called platform technologies—experimental
approaches to producing new vaccines that use synthetic DNA to kick-start an
immune response.”
– MIT Technology Review
• Newly formed CEPI is largest-ever initiative to finance/develop new vaccines to address
emerging infectious diseases
• Initial $540M investment: Germany, Japan, Norway, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and
Wellcome Trust
